THREE CORAL ISLANDS
SEVERELY DAMAGED
CAMAOUEY, Cuba, Nov. 12 (AP).
—Cuba has turned Its hand once
again to the task of reconstruction,
surrounded here by the desolation
left in the path of one of the most
disastrous hurricanes of recent
years.
The number of dead Is estimated
at from 1,000 to 1,700, and It ap-
peared possible that when the full
•tory Is told the toll may reach 2,000.
Most of the victims were those
who lived in Santa Cruz Del Sur,
on the southern coast. •
The work now Is mostly up to the
doctors. Rebuilding will begin
later, but It seems probable that
Santa Cruz Del Sur, wiped out by
wind and tidal wave, will not be
built again.
FEW FAMILIES ESCAPE
Refugees from there and from
other towns In Camaguey Province
have come here afoot, a few by
motor, and many aboard freight
trains. Most of them are hurt.
Nearly all are grief stricken, for
few families escaped without loss.
Doctors from Havana and else-
where are working without thought
of rest, mending the Injured, restor-
ing sanitation facilities and inocu-
lating thousands against disease.
Their greatest fear is of a measles
epidemic. A few cases were dis-
covered and the patients quickly
Isolated. There Is not enough water
to go around, and the doctors said
this misfortune, ' with unsanitary
conditions, might contribute to an
epidemic. .
FOUR DIE ON TRAIN
This evening another tralnload of
Injured came up from Santa Cruz
Del 8ur. Wiien they arrived, four
who had started the trip, were dead.
Among the others, some whose In-
juries were not especially serious,
had developed Infections which
made their cases urgent.

Ronald Mobey, Aged Nine,
Taken to Jubilee Hospital
in Critical Condition
Ronald Mobey. nine-year-old son
of Mr. and Mrs. Mobey. 1071 Finlay-

injured In an automobile accident
at the intersection of Johnson and
Douglas Streets about 6 o'clock last
night.
The boy was taken to the Jubilee
Hospital In an unconscious condi-
tion, suffering from a badly frac-
tured'skull. He was operated upon
by Dr. F. M. Bryant and Dr. E. L.
McNlven. and the parents anxiously
awaited the outcome of the medical
attention rendered.
According to the police report, the
boy was walking south on Douglas
Street with his parents and as he
reached Johnson Street ran ahead.
An automobile driven by Leonard
Hibberson. 1513 Amphlon 8treet,
east on Johnson 8treet. struck the
boy down.
His head, apparently, was struck
by the car and the pavement, mak-
ing the fracture a major one.

GENEVA. Nov. 12 (AP) -Military
authorities turned from machine
guns to fire hoses tonight In an
attempt to thwart another serious
clash with civilians.
A threatening crowd obstinately
sang the "Internationale" In front
of a line of soldiers with rifles
drawn almost against the breasts
of the crowd. The situation was
tense and anther incident similar
to Wednesday's bnttle, when twelve
persons were killed, seemed im-
minent.
Then officers gave the order to
turn on the fire hose. The crowd

from the Canton ot Valals were
brought to Geneva and housed in
the large exposition building near

moving" was shouted everywhere.
Other than this incident, the
twenty-four-hour strike called by
the trade unions as a day of mourn-
ing for those killed during the antl-
Soclallst demonstration passed with-
out serious trouble. Troops occu-
pied all public buildings, and mili-
tary authorities warned that they
were in chnrge of the situation and
would use arms without notice If
orders were violated.

OFFICIALS OF OLD
REGIME REMOVED
BERLIN. Nov. 12 (AP).— The
Government late today Issued a
communique characterizing rumors
of another Impending Reichstag
dissolution as "resting upon pure
speculation."
The communique, apparently, was
Issued to allay talk going the rounds
of political circles.
Nazi, Centrist, Democrat-Social-
ist and Communist newspapers have
been demanding the Chancellor's
resignation. Whatever Chancellor
von Papen may have in mind in
regard to the course, he will steer
In view of the strong opposition in
the Reichstag, many quarters be-
lieved tonight the situation had not
been clarified by last weeks Reich-
stag election.
WARN CHANCELLOR
Even organs which favor the Gov-
ernment's general course warned the
Chancellor to place his Government
on a broader basis by procuring, if
not collaboration, at least toleration
of the Nazis and the Centre parties.
Numerous newspaper editorials ex-
pressed fear that another Reichstag
dissolution might be followed by
long postponement of elections, and
that the Chancellor would thus rule
without a Reichstag.
REMOVES OFFICIALS
The Chancellor, however, con-
tinued to rid Prussia of officials who
belonged to the Democrat-Socialist
regime of Herr Braun. former
Prussian Premier. The Chancellor
removed 140 more of the higher
officials today.
This act led Herr Braun, who
himself has been dispossessed, to
protest to President Hlndenburg and
furnished a topic for debate in the
Relchsrat, which met today for the
first time In many months.
LOOK TO PRESIDENT
Joint committees of the Relchsrat
decided to memorialize the Govern-
ment to be careful about constitu-
tional reform, and to urge that
federated State* be permitted to
participate in drafting proposed
changes in the constitution.
As so often In the past, all parties
are looking to the venerable Presi-
dent von Hlndenburg to speak the
final word. If he decides to stand
by Chancellor von Papen. Informed
quarters are Inclined to believe the
present Government will continue
in spite of a nonconfldence vote in
the Reichstag.

that the people of Louisiana had
voted against state prohibition en-

"The result of the election, when
the voters of New Orleans voted
twenty-five to one In favor of re-
peal of the Hood State Enforce-
ment Act, Indicates clearly that It
Is contrary to the will of the peo-
ple," the superintendent said. "I
have therefore Instructed policemen

ON DIFFERENT BASI8
TIGAN, Lancashire. Nov. 12 (CP). — Twenty-eight
1 miners are believed to have lost their lives in the explo-
sion which wrecked No. 9 pit of the Edgefield colliery
at Ashton-in-Makerfield. early today. Bodies of twenty-four
were brought to the surface, and four other miners were misi-
ing. It was practically certain they also had been killed by
the blast. It was impossible to identify many of the bodies
recovered, some of them being burned beyond recognition.
SECOND IN MONTH
Coming almost exactly a month
after the loss of nineteen men In a
pit-shaft disaster at Leigh, only a
few miles from Ash ton. todays
tragedy cast the entire Lancashire
coal fields district In gloom.
Police, doctors and other rescue
workers flocked to the mine shaft
immediately after the blast, which
occurred Just before dawn. The first
rays of daylight found hundred* of
anxious relatives grouped around
the pithead.
At the time of the blast, 106 men
were down In the mine. Of these
seventy-eight escaped. Under more
normal trade conditions, more than
500 miners would have been below.
DIRECTOR TO RESCUE
The main rescue party of sixty
men Included the managing director
of the Edgefield Colliery Company,
who rose from a sick bed to don
anti-gas equipment and go down
the pit. Miners' Federal officials
were also there, as well as Gordon
MarDonald, Member of Parliament.
Seven hours of fighting their way
through deadly fire-damp wore out
the rescuers before they reached
the scene of disaster. M0 feet below
the surface. Some of the hastily-
summoned doctors worked on the
survivors In dressing gowns and
slippers, both In the mine and at
the surface.

Even organs which favor the Gov-

Chancellor to place his Oovernment
on a broader basis by procuring, If
not collaboration, at least toleration
of the Nazis and the Centre parties.
Numerous newspaper editorials ex-
pressed fear that another Reichstag
dissolution might be followed by
long postponement of elections, and
that the Chancellor would thus rule
without a Reichstag.
REMOVES OFFICIALS
The Chancellor, however, con-
tinued to rid Prussia of officials who
belonged to the Democrat-Socialist
regime of Herr Braun. former
Prussian Premier. The Chancellor
removed 140 more of the higher
officials today.
This act led Herr Braun, who
himself has been dispossessed, to
protest to President Hindenburg and
furnished a topic for debate In the
Relchsrat, which met today for the
nrst time in many months.

Business Leaders Discuss
Trade Treaty at Dinner
Given by Agent-General
Beneficial results of the Imperial
rade agreements negotiated at Ot-
tawa were already apparent, de-
clared A. C. Bossom, MP, at a re-
cent dinner given by F. P. Burden,
Agent Oeneral for BrltLsh Columbia
In London. The occasion was one
to further the mutual understand-
ii i- between British Columbia tim-
ber interests and lumber consumers
In Oreat Britain. It was part of the
Intensive programme that Is being
carried on in the United Kingdom
to popularize British Columbia
products.
BRITISH SAWS
In speaking briefly, Mr. Bossom
stated that British Columbia .was
asking Oreat Britain to buy timber,
and was already placing orders in
Oreat Britain for steel saws with
which to cut the lumber. This was
an outcome, he said, of the trade
treaties.
The Duchess of Atholl was en-
thusiastic In her endorsement of
Empire preferences, and predicted
increased trade and prosperity as a
result of them. 8he welcomed the
decision to denounce the trade pact
with Russia. Curtailment of Soviet
dumping would open new trade
channels, not only within the Em-
pire, but with foreign countries, she
said.

WIGAN. Lancashire. Nov. 12 (CP). — Twenty-eight
miners are believed to have lost their lives in the explo-
sion which wrecked No. 9 pit of the Edgefield colliery
at Ashton-in-Makerfield, early today. Bodies of twenty-four
were brought to the surface, and four other miners were mist-
ing. It was practically certain they also had been killed by
the blast. It was impossible to identify many of the bodies
recovered, some of them being burned beyond recognition.
8ECOND IN MONTH
Coming almost exactly a month
after the loss of nineteen men in a
pit-shaft disaster at Leigh, only a
few miles from Ashton. todays
tragedy cast the entire Lancashire
coal fields district In gloom.
Police, doctors and other rescue
workers flocked to the mine shaft
immediately after the blast, which
occurred Just before dawn. The first
rays of daylight found hundreds of
anxious relatives grouped around
the pithead
At the time of the blast, 106 men
were down In the mine. Of these
seventy-eight escaped. Under more
normal trade conditions, more than
500 miners would have been below.
DIRECTOR TO RESCUE
The main rescue party of sixty
men included the managing director
of the Edgefield Colliery Company,
who rose from a sick bed to don
anti-gas equipment and go down
the pit. Miners' Federal officials
were also there, as well as Gordon
MarDonald, Member of Parliament.
Seven hours of fighting their way
through deadly fire-damp wore out
the rescuers before they reached
the scene of disaster, 000 feet below
the surface. Some of the hastily-
summoned doctors worked on the
survivors In dressing gowns and
slippers, both In the mine and at
the surface.
ONE OF GROUP
Ashton is one of the many mining
villages grouped about Wlgan, In an
area continually overcast by a pall
of smoke and coal dust. Leigh,

their lives when a pit cage crashed

"Dr. Gunning has not as yet re-
ceived assay returns of his own
samples. Very little active pros-
pecting is being done at present. A
mineralised belt, not definitely
known to contain valuable de-
posits, extends northwest from the
forks ol Ze hallos River lor ten or
fifteen miles, crossing Artllsh River
about seven miles above the mouth.
"It has not been prospected for
more than about two miles from
Zeballos" River, but the country Is
very rugged and much of it is
heavily timbered. It la difficult to
prospect."

"The Dairy Products Sales Ad-
justment Act was promoted by the
dairy interests and embodied in a
somewhat novel scheme designed to
meet serious marketing conditions
that had developed In the lower
Praser Valley. Not only was this
scheme a legislative experiment, but
the Attorney-Oeneral's Department
was of opinion that the proposed
act contained legal difficulties and
would not be upheld by the courts
GOVERNMENT ALOOF
"In view of this the Government
declined to assume responsibility
for the legislation. The act was
introduced by a private member ol
the House in pursuance of the right
that every private member enjoys,
and was considered on Its merits by
the members of the Legislature gen-
erally. A majority of the member*
was found to be In favor of allow-
ing the promoters to try out the ex-
periment, as no one came forward
with any other solution likely to
meet the situation. Practically the
same considerations applied at the
subsequent sessions at which the act
was amended.
AWAIT JUDGMENT
"The case Involving the validity
of the act, recently taken to the
Privy Council, has resulted In a final
decision being given that the act
is ultra vires the legislative powers
of the province. The text of this
decision is not yet available, and
without that It would be premature
for anyone to hazard an opinion as
to what should be done to meet the
situation.
"As I said before, the legislation
was Introduced and promoted by
private Interests, and the result of
the matter In the courts amply Jus-
tifies the course adopted by the
Government In declining to become
responsible for the legislation. 8o
far as the facts are known, there
docs not appear to be anything
culling for Government Intervention
at the present time.'1 the Premier
concluded
o'clock when a grand banquet will
be held In the Hudson's Bay Com-
pany dining-room. Officials of

WAI.TFR INWABD
WaltcT Inward, who has been a
candidate on a number of occasions
for municipal office, announced yes-
terday he would be In the field for
the aldermanic board at next
month's election.
Mr. Inward says, if elected, he
will work for the abolition of the
ward system in municipal politics
and also the abolition of the two-
year term for aldermen. He also
favors no discrimination in charges
for water as between that charged
to the municipalities of Oak Bay
and Saanich and what is charged
to the consumers in Victoria. An-
other plank In his platform is that
no airport facilities shall be pro-
vided by the municipality unless
first approved by the people's vote.
Mr. Inward advocates the provi-
sion of productive work for the un-
employed as opposed to direct relief,
and In this connection says that, if
those out of work are given work,
their womenfolk will be able to re-
tain a greater measure of self-
respect in purchasing their house-
hold necessities. He will work for a
reduction In taxation and he advo-
cates the appointment of a com-
mission of prominent citizens, with-
out pay, to draw up a policy for the
sale or use of reverted lands for
submission to the City Council.
Mr. Inward believes that greater
efforts than have obtained in the
past should be directed to making
reverted properties usable and
placed again in the tax-paying
column at the City Hall.

(AP). — At least eighty persons were
killed, more than 300 were seriously
Injured and n/operty damage of
about $1,000,000 was Inflicted on
Tuesday night when the hurricane
whose full force fell on Cuba the
next day. struck the Cayman Is-
lands, three coral Islands 200 miles
northwest of here.
All buildings on the isles of Cay-
manl/.ac and Little Cayman were
demolished, reports reaching here
tonight said, and survivors are suf-
fering from exposure.
Word of the disaster reached
here only today, for communication
facilities between here and the
Caymans are not of the best.
STEAMER TAKES SUPPLIES
The steamship Lochkatrine left
here this afternoon for the Islands,
loaded with Red Cross supplies,
tents, clothing, building materials
and food.
The island commissioner reported
that the storm struck Little Cayman

leaving Orand Cayman Island, the
largest of the group, unscathed.
He appealed for immediate help
and the authorities here dispatched
food, medical supplies and building
material. *
The Caymans are only a few feet
above the sea, surrounded by coral
reefs. When the wind blew in at

and In their disappointment people
failed to notice that careful compu-
tations, published shortly before the

meteor stream had been moved out
of its path by the powerful gravita-

We wish to avoid this year any
similar dissatisfaction with astro-

The calculations this year indi-
cate that the meteor stream has
been shifted back toward its orbit
before 1899; we should not miss the
stream again. However. It has not
been moved back to its 1833 posi-
tion. We should not have so good

A world-wide movement that
would become a lasting memorial to
the men who gave their lives in the
Oreat War is advocated by Major
K B. 8purgln. of Victoria, author
of the book "On Active Service,"
written following the South African
War and which drew criticism from
the late Earl Roberts.
The Idea Involves a great brother-
hood fund to aid the helpless and
needy in the present and for all
time to come, in which aid could be
given to all classes, friend and late
foes alike, irrespective of creed, race,
station or service to the state.
WORLD-WIDE FUND
He suggests that every city, town
or hamlet throughout the world
start a fund from contributions and
let the final date of contributions
for the year end with the eleventh
hour of the eleventh day of the
eleventh month. All donations,
Major Spurgin suggests, would be
made out to "Cheerio" and gifts
acknowledged by the community
committee with the verses of "Flan-
ders Fields." In this way the spirit
of "they gave all and ask those who
are left to give something" will be
perpetuated for all time to come
Major 8purgln hopes to bring into
one unit all organizations, ex-
service and civic, now dispensing
aid to the poor and needy of the
community and thus prevent any
overlapping.
OUTLINE OF SCHEME
Major 8purgin sets out his plan
as follows:
"It has many times been sug-
gested that a lasting memorial be
erected to those who gave their lives
in the last Oreat War.
"During the Armistice service on
Friday the following idea occurred
to me In reference to a fitting me-
morial to our gallant comrades, one
on which they would put the hall
mark of approval In memory of the
sacrifice made by those who died
that we all might live. I suggest
that a fund be started to aid the
helpless and needy, this fund to be
made world wide and to be taken
up by friend and late foe alike. A

brotherhood of the nations-
memory of the gallant dead
COURAGE IS NEED
"To help all in dire distress, Irre-
spective of race, creed, station, or
service to the state. At the present
time we talk of depression.- What
Is this monster? Fear, and fear of
what? The antidote to fear Is cour-
age. The greatest example of cour-
age Is the sacrifice of the lives laid
down cheerfully by the heroes who
have crossed the great divide.
"They are still to us the supreme
example of cheery fortitude in the
face of death. My suggestion Is In
each city or town throughout the
world, start a fund and let the final
date each year be the eleventh hour
of the eleventh day of the eleventh
month. Why should not Victoria,
the seat of the Western outpost of
our great Empire set the example
to the world? 8tart a fund.
PAY TO "CHEERIO"
"All cheques, parcels of food and
clothing, or goods of any kind to
be delivered to a receiving room In
the city hall of each city, or a cen-
tral hall In any village or commu-
nity, each community to be sclf-
suppartlng. All cheques are to be
made out to 'Cheerio,' the word
which In the Great War meant so
very much — the word of greeting,
the word of departure, courage
comrade— Cheerio! happy days.'
"The receipt to be sent to all
donors of money or kind to be a
postcard with the verse from Flan-
ders Fields': a design of a poppy
and the words "They thank you.'
"It merely means that those who
gave all ask those who are left to
give something to those who have
nothing; help those who now de-
spair. Hold high the torch of faith
in God and your country.
ALL TO PARTICIPATE
"Each city to form a strong work-
ing committee from all service clubs
In the community. These clubs and
societies will appoint their repre-
sentatives to work on the main
committee. Cut out all overlapping
of the various channels of help and
put all under one head.
"Build up a brotherhood of na-
tions on the sure foundation of the
memory of the courageous sons who
laid down their lives that we might
live to 'carry on.' "

Obscured
DRUMBO. Ont. Nov. 12 (CP).—
Three Brantferd men are dead to-

crash north of here. Hurled to
death when a passenger train struck
their car, the victims are: Kenneth
L. and George Smith, and Norman

A clump of trees and a snow flurry

drove into the path of the train.
The locomotive struck the car be
side the steering wheel, crushing It
and carrying It along on the pilot
of the engine some 200 yards before
the train Was stopped.

CREDIT AND DISCREDIT
In the stages of any economic dispensation
the most dlffleult problem of the trader is that
of, granting credit. He Is always faced with the
customer who refuses to pay his bills promptly,
rlf Is faced more than ever in that way at this
tifre, sometimes because of inability of the cus-
todier to pay but even more often by a dishonest
hiblt of keeping the trader out of his money.
TUls factor In trade has been the subject of the
presidential address to the British National
Chamber of Trade by Mr. H. E. Beale at the
gathering recently held at Birmingham.
Mr. Beale says that because of the present
attitude of so many people credit is rapidly
lg into discredit. The time has arrived, he
»ves, when it should We more generally un-
stood that traders cannot l»e expected to live
leflnltely on the promises to pay of "extremely
jetful customers." Mr. Beale believes this
Id be pointed out in a tactful way. He does
say that credit should be abolished, but
sre Is an Imperative necessity of Instructing
the puhilc on the fact that frozen credit "clogs
trkde tmd retards the longed-for arrival of more
normal conditions." It is somewhat remarkable
" it economic theorists, when stressing the ef
nepenthe which will banish from sight and mind
the serious things with which age continues to
vex Itself ."

famous of Russia's cathedrals, is being turned
Into a cinema palace. This a part and parcel of la switch, we could accomplish this
the Soviet's campaign against religion. There Is wonderful change In our every-
a "Oodless Five-Year Plan" as we" — "-lday Ufe »nd tnua reallze how ^
as an eco-
nomic dispensation of the same tym. The former
plan commenced this year. During the first
twelve months the object held In view is the
closing of all churches and the putting an end to
religious communities. The second year Is dedi-
cated to the liquidation of "religious family cells."
It is proposed that during 1933 all religious
minded persons should be expelled from all State
undertakings and offices. All religious literature
Is to be prohibited, and religious cults are to be
forbidden. In the campaign of propaganda 150
antl-rellglous films are being prepared which will
be shown throughout the Union, In the schools

monetary circulation, rarely, If ever, allude to
the frozen credit that Is Implied by their own
and other people's negligence in paying their
bflls.
Many of those who are keeping traders out
of their legitimate dues make the feeble excuse
that since times are hard It is a matter of wis-
dom to postpone settlements. That Is sheer dis-
honesty. The very persons who would not dream
of borrowing money will take long credit from
tradespeople and others, which is their way of
borrowing by a subterfuge In other words, re-
tailers and professional men act as moneylend-
ers to those who buy goods and services on credit
while using for other purposes the money which
they should pay in legitimate bills. Mr. Beale
says that "to hold back payment of a Just I>111
is dishonest, for It Is keeping back from another
that which is his due.
The lesson of "frozen credit" is that, "if the
general public arc as anxious to do their bit In
the general revitallzation of trade, as many say
they are, this is one way in which they can give
practical proof of their desire." The extent to
which the payment of bills Is now withheld is a
substantially contributing cause to the economic
conditions that are persisting. The people are
blaming everyone but themselves for those con-
ditions, and yet, in this, as In so many other re-
spects, they are the architects of their own for-
The third year of the Oodless plan Is to be al-
lotted to the "actlvlzatlon of Oodless cells."
During that year (1934) all those who refuse to
abandon clerical orders are to be expelled from
the country. In the fourth year all churohes,
synagogues and chapels must be surrendered to
the local Soviets to be used as cinemas, clubs and
other places of "Intelligent pastime." The fifth
year is to be devoted to strengthening and con-
solidating the positions won all along the God-
less front. The goal aimed at is, by May 1, 1937,
"not to leave a single house of prayer on the ter-
ritory of the U.S.8.R.. and to extinguish in theihomt
minds of the people the very notion of God."
After her five-year Godless plan is executed,
so far as it may be, Russia intends to extend the
campaign by propaganda to the rest of the world
One method of doing this Is by means of wireless
and the broadcasting of the Oodless theories. It
is hoped to make every home that can be reached
by radio a prey to Communist antl-rellglous
propaganda. Alexander Pope may well have fore
seen the aim of the Soviets when he wrote:
Religion, blushing, veils her
And unawares, morality expires.
Nor public flame, nor private, dares to shine;
Nor human spark is left, nor glimpse divine!
Lo! thy dread empire, Chaos! Is restored;
Light dies before thy uncreated word
Thy hand, great Anarch! lets the curtain fall;
And universal darkness buries all.
REDUCED PRICE OF CIGARETTES
81r James Jeans says that anthropologists and
geologists tell us that man has existed on earth
for something like 300,000 years; that he Is a
lsjte apparition on the planet, and that he Is still
otily In his babyhood. In fact, while there have
been some 10,000 generations of men only the last
of those generations have been able to view
le problem of their existence In anything like
proper astronomical perspective. Man. in
let, Is but a new-born l>abe, "with all the unex-
lored potentialities of babyhood," and, "until
le last few moments humanity has been cen-
absolutely and exclusively on Its cradle and
tedlng bottle." Humanity, in short, has only
Jbst become conscious of the vast world existing
olitslde itself and Its cradle. Its interest in this
eternal world Is as yet very undeveloped so that
main part of its faculties is still engrossed
the cradle and the feeding-bottle while a
lsjtle part of its brain is beginning to wonder.
Although In the "babyhood" of which Sir
les speaks, and chastening as the thought
ust be that 2,000 million years may lapse be-
fore manhood Is reached, mankind Is permeated
with those who for want of a better name are
called cognoscenti. They number among them
the psychologists who have sprung up In these
latter years to perplex the Individual and to make
him or her more introspective than might other-
wise be the case. It appears now that the more
advanced among these psychologists have discov-
ered that the mind of youth "Is sombre and full
of darkness." The theory they construct on this
assumption is that "the struggle of the untamed
Individual against the herd Is the present-day
form of classic tragedy." The sombre victim, who
Is full of darkness, does not altogether believe the
dissector of his mental reflexes. There is some-
thing In the nature of rebellion against this
viewpoint contained in an English school maga-
zine called The Blrkonlan. The editor therein
says, "what we want is a kind of nepenthe which
will make us forget everything serious. When
we take a serious view we grow more and more
depressed." If there is one thing which modern
psychology appears to have left out of its reckon-
ings It Is laughter and nonsense, and It Is that
very laughter and nonsense which the editor of
The Blrkonlan says "will be about as helpful as
most philosophical suggestions." His prescrip-
tion for forgetting everything serious Is offered In
serious vein, and those who he would have im-
bued with the nepenthe are not the young alone
but psychologists as well and all of mature age.
The advice Is worthy of thought in a world,
yet in Its "babyhood" and only Just beginning
to be able to view the problems of existence. If
Sir James Jeans is to be believed the world is
old but man is very young. It U conceivable
that the human race has yet 2.000 million years
to run. The period Is not being shortened by
the strictures of psychologists who see in the
mind of youth that which Is "sombre and dark."
As The London Times says In commenting on
the views of the editor of The Blrkonlan: "If
psychologists cannot be Joyful, at least let them
refrain from bring sententious. The world Is old
is young. Youth itself is the
The excise tax on cigarettes made in this
country has been reduced from $6 to $4 a thou-
sand. This action has followed the lower duty
applicable on cigarettes imported from the
United Kingdom under the Anglo-C^madian
trade agreement. The duty on the British prod-
uct Is reduced from $4.10 to $3.5Q a 'pound.
These reductions mean a lowering in the price
of cigarettes to the consumer which will defi-
nitely apply on the Canadian-made product, and
which will presumably also be put into force
where British cigarettes are concerned. The
Federal Treasury believes that cheaper cigarettes
will reduce smuggling from the American side,
that there will be Increased consumption, and
that many who now make their own cigarettes

We were not blessed with that
wonderful Invention, electricity, In
its modern application, that brought
many most useful and pleasing Im-
provements to aid mankind. Can-
dles, lanterns and lamps were in
use for lighting purposes. Catnphine

was very dangerous compared to
the latter. One would often notice

ernoon, at least before dark. There
were four lamps at the corner of
Yates and Government Streets. The
other streets were lighted in a slmi

It was very seldom that a holdup
occurred. The darkness of the
streets was no cause of fear among
the younger set. or the older either,
for that matter.
The reader can picture to himself
the great changes that have taken
place in our everyday life in this
modern age. Many years ago. one
would spend a quiet evening at
reading the Old Country
papers, which were two months old,
and The Colonist would be placed
on the table to be perused. This
was printed twice a week on a hand
press, giving its readers the latest
news brought by pony express,
which was composed of a relay of
ponies, employed to carry mail across
the continent before the building
of the Central Pacific Railway (both
in the United States). Letters were
written veeks before they reached
here. This caused at times a trying
state of affairs for everyone, espe-
cially the sweet young thing, as she
would be anxiously waiting to re-

Spooner Oils Fail in Appeal

appeal against the decision of the
Alberta Supreme Court, ruling the

Act intra vires and within the Pro-

In dismissing the appeal, the
appellate court, however, ruled that

authorize the Government to im-
pose a levy on Turner Valley
companies to pay the expenses of

WINDY NIGHT
All night I wondered where I would be going
When morning came. All night the dank and dark
wind cried aloud, bitterly blowing,
Meaningless with confusion's mindless mark,
Until I thought something has surely gone mad.
And why should I wait for morning— It would be
nothing
But a dull light across the eastern sky.
But a slight mark upon a black heart's loathing,
The more to taunt me, oh. to taunt me by.
But morning came with brilliancy and peace.
The flying plumage of the morning star.
Easing these tangled nerves from their sick fear,
Slowly came out. chastising night to cease
Haranguing every heart to bitter war;
Suppress its windy dark, and my despair.
—John Vincent Healy, in The Saturday Review of
Literature.
I consider a human soul without education like
marble In the quarry, which shows none of Its in-
herent beauties until the skill of the polisher fetches
out the colors and makes the surface shine.— Joseph

Well. It was happiness, after all
—at least, as much as mortal man
could expect.
Even the ice in early times was
different from the manufactured
article today. Swan Lake, only two
and a half miles away, gave the
best supply. It 'was not unusual in
the 'sixties to saw ice a foot and a
half thick and store for Summer
use. The reader may think that we
were compelled to do without that
very useful commodity then. No
we had a way to keep the Winter's
supply of ice and had plenty of it,
even in the warmest weather.
On Princess Avenue, where it
Joins Government Street, was a
large storage building, with another
structure erected on the inside,
leaving a wide space between the
Inner and the outer building, which
space was filled with sawdust. There
was also two feet of sawdust on the
floor, and on this square blocks of
Ice were placed, six inches apart
and covered with sawdust, and then
another layer on top again, until
the building was filled, and ready
for Summer use. The blocks were
then duj out. washed and placed in
a covered wagon, and disposed of
Just as if by the ice man of today.

Buck Edmonds Is a civil engineer,
and In his early days was construc-
tion superintendent during the de-
velopment of a large subdivision, the
Highlands, in the outskirts of a
Pacific Coast city. Buck is a man
that gets things done, but he also
possesses a keen sense of humor,
and takes great enjoyment out of a
situation which illustrates the oppo-
site qualities. He tells this story:
It appears that the city authori-
ties were unable to supply police
protection for the Highlands and
appointed Buck a sort of special
policeman, supplying him with the
necessary adjuncts, Including a pair
of handcuffs. When Buck started
to investigate these he found that
the key would not unlock them, so
he left them with a locksmith, with
the promise from him that they
would be ready at a certain time.
He called once or twice, but the
handcuffs were not ready.
Now thLs was in 1912. About that
time he left the Job at the High-
lands to take on a better paying Job
In a neighboring city. In 1918 his
wife decided to pay a visit to their
former place of abode, so he sug-
gested that she call and see if the
handcuffs were done yet! She ac-
cordingly dropped In st the lock-
smith's shop and Inquired about
them. No. said the man. he hadn't
been able to get around to them
yet; was she In a hurry for them?
Oh. no, she guessed, there wasn't
any hurry for them.
Now it happened that very re-
cently Buck was required for some
special work In the Highlands In
connection with which his early
knowledge of the subdivision was
valuable. A few days after his ar-
rival he remembered the handcuffs,
so he called at the locksmith's shop.
A young woman was tending shop,
so he told her his business. "Father."
she called. An old man came from
the bark of the shop, and on being
told what was wanted rummaged
around for a while and finally lo-
cated the handcuffs In a shoe box,
under a miscellaneous collection of
Junk. "No. sir. " he said, "they're
not quite ready yet. Was you in a
hurry for them? "Or. no." said
Buck, as he left the shop, "there's
no hurry— take your time about it!"
He was a new member of the
harbor board in a seaside town, and
was attending his first meeting
The board was discussing a pro-
posal to place two buoys st the en-
trance to the harbor for the guid-
ance of mariners.
"I beg to propose as an amend-
ment ." said the new member "that
one man should be placed there
Instead of two buoys, as the latter
are too young for such a
position"
(CONTRIBUTED)
The Provincial Red Cross has
had some very heart-warming ex-
periences lately. A gentleman
called at the office with a money
contribution and a box, containing
a complete outfit of new clothing
for a man. warm fleece-lined
underwear, pajamas, boots, a suit of
clothes, blankets ; everything
needed. Imagine the kind thoughts
behind such a gift. This was
closely followed by a large box of
knitted baby clothes from Duncan,
and a further contribution of little
dresses and suits for boys from the
French ladies who constantly knit
for the society.
Most of the local branches are
busy making clothing for those in
need. Vancouver has twenty-one
Red Cross circles in different parts
of the city and has 1.500 garments
ready for distribution.
Everyone should be doing some-
thing for the cause. Many persons
like to see something for their
money; like to buy something, play
cards, or go to a party; then or-
ganize these things for them; the
proceeds will help. As Charles
Klngsley put It, "Do something, do
good if you can, do something."
There la much that Is ugly and even

in pioneering, especially where rero
weather is the rule in Winter. A
mother writes from Peace River:
"The children go barefoot all Sum-
mer, but we have not sufficient
clothing in Winter and no money.
We can't exist without help this
Winter. We do so fear the cold."
Once again, clothing is urgently
needed for the North, new or worn,
and money so that the lack of milk
and vegetables may be made up to
the children. This can be done
through the Red Cross nurses, who
are also school nurses up there.
This continued employment year

DEATH OF A DOG
Sir.-On Monday, our children
were trying to get their little puppy-
dog over the road in front of our
house, when a delivery van (baker's)
came up Earsman. We do not live
at the corner. The children came
screaming in to say that a man had
run over "Laddie." The man did not
stop until he got up to the chemist's
shop. He then came back and said
he could not avoid the accident. He
would not have returned, but the
children were making so much
commotion they were attracting at-
tention.
When we went out I could not
speak to him when I saw poor
Laddie" with his neck broken.
The delivery men on Fairfield
Road exceed the speed limit all the
time. If they were half as careful
as the B.C. Electric men, there
would be fewer accidents. The man
responsible for the death o: our dog
need not think that we believe him
when he said he could not avoid it.
as the children were there with the
dog (thev Were on the sidewalk).
This letter may help to save
poor little dumb animal from the
speed fiends. M J. WOOD.

ARMISTICE DAY SERVICE
Sir, — The general public and ex-
service men in particular are under
a considerable obligation to those
who were responsible this year for
the arrangement* for the ceremony
of remembrance at the Cenotaph.
Clearly great pains had been taken
to insure the precision and smooth-
ness such an occasion should have.
Recognized as it now is, a public
act of homage and reconsccratlon.
every detail of the act seemed to
contribute its emphasis to the cen-
tral silence. That silence, unbroken
by any untoward sound, was moving
beyond expression.
The returned men were grateful'
for one or two thoughtful touches,
particularly for the happily selected
march music so well rendered by
their band.

Let me tell you what makes an
airport a paying proposition and
why such an investment by the
City of Victoria would not have a
chance, in a thousand years, of e-ver
reaping any profits from such a
venture.
Airport facilities, like soap and
sealing wax. must be sold. In a
word airports must have a com-
mercial value. To spend a large
sum Just to accommodate the air-
plane of the odd tourist or the
world travele*" is not good business.
An airport must be geographically
located so that money-making ex-
(Pacific peditlons are compelled to use it.
for the For instance. Edmonton. Alberta.
Airplanes leave that city daily for
Oreat Bear Lake, where is the
latest mining venture to have
gained universal recognition. Ed-
monton is the last port of call and
from there airplanes take the place
of all other means of transporta-
tion. The fare ls $200 a head, and
everything in excess of ordinary
clothing Is classed as freight— that
The Edmonton planes are loaded
both ways. Oolng north they carry
capitalists and miners; coming
.Touth they bring out high-grade ore
Therefore the p'.anes pay and the
Edmonton airport Is profitable.
Moreover, the merchants of that
city make money by f.ttlng out
these "sourdoughs" and speculators
for their plunge into the new El-
dorado.
To make an airport a paving
civic-owned utility we must have
some outstanding attraction of a
profitable nature to compel planes
to use our airport. We must st
lrast be in the line of regular com-
mercial airplane activity. There are
no rich localities. Inaccessible by
road, to which Victoria holds the
key. like Oreat Bear Lake Planes
have not yet. and likely never will,
become the vehicle of the ordinary
tourist. They are not a succers for
sight-seeing because from an air-
plane little is seen but the roofs.
Hencs the absurdity of a large in
vestment in airport facilities here
should be obvious to everybody, and
moat especially to (hose who w
eleet to guard our Interests.

pledged himself to work for the

announcing his candidature for
alderman yesterday.
"I hesitated for some time before
consenting to be a candidate, but
when a representative body of
tradesmen and others through most
touching pressure appealed to me to
stand and said I could assist with
my knowledge and experience of

other course open to me," Mr. Har-

"I have heard a good deal and
have been closely questioned upon

chief complaint is the continuous

power to secure the best possible

sible cost to the taxpayer.
"Unemployment, with the ac-

will again this coming year be one
of the City Council's major prob-
lems. While I do not attempt to
make foolish promises, my sym-

of the former must be conserved;
the needs of the latter must be

Mr Wakefield said.
"I believe that the City Council

Some more stories are at hand
showing the type of honpital cases
that have to be dealt with by the
Red Croas nurses In the Peace River
country.
Mis* Nancy Dunn. R.N , Red Cross
nurse at Sunset Prairie, writes In
a recent letter as follows:
"I found a man In a shack with
his foot half off. I dressed it, then
rode nine miles to find a car in
which I got him to the hospital
where he was operated on. He would
undoubtedly have L>st his foot but
for the help I was able to give him.
I also rode twelve miles and traveled
twelve In a wagon to see a very sick
woman. A car met me and we took
the woman to hospital, a distance
of eighty miles. This was at 3
o'clock in the morning.
"Last week I took a kidney case
to hospital. It was fifty-six degrees
below zero I went out to attend
the case In my cutter, supplied with
hot bricks and blankets. We were
able to transfer the patient to a
car, and In that way reached hos-
pital. The doctor says It saved that
man's life.
HOSPITAL A BLESSING
"Another case we had was a boy
With a fractured leg. sustained when
a load of Ice turned over on him
I brought him down off the moun- I
tain where they live, and across
the river; transferred him to my
car and by that to hospital. Please
tell whoever pays for IX what a
blessing the hospital is."
This again emphasizes the value
of the Red Cross hospitals In the
Peace River country.
For many years the Red Cross
Hospital at Pouce Coupe was the
only hospital In the Peace River
country, and for eleven years has
furnished hospital facilities to the
settlers who have poured Into the
North country in ever-increasing
numbers Three years ago the Brit-
ish Columbia Red Cross took over
the hospital, and at a cost of $2,500
has' financed it ever since, most of
the revenues coming from patients'
fees and Government allowances.
ESTABLISH OUTPOSTS
As the settlement of the district
extended the Red Cross, co-operat-
ing with the Provincial Government,
established two oth?r outposts, north
and west of Pouce Coupe, but be-
fore these existed it was not un-
common for patients to have to
travel fifty, seventy, or even a hun-
dred miles over the roughest trails
in order to obtain the care they
so urgently required.
Last year the Pouce Coupe outpost
cared for 374 patients to whom It
provided 4.362 days of hasptlal care
at the extremely low cc*l of $2.19
per day, the smallest per diem cost
of any hospital in the province.
OFTEN FILLED
The outpost has accommodation
for fifteen patients and Ls often
filled to capacity. To the matron.
Miss Ida Crook, and her staff of
three nurses, is due not only the
admirable service given to the pa-
tients, but also an administration
second to none in economical man-
agement.
It is its record of lives saved and
sufferings relieved that gives the
outpost the unanimous support and
gratitude of the people it cares for.

CHINESE FARMER
OFFERS FORTUNE
to Con •
PEIPINO, Chin* (UP)— Chlnn
the
dlacovery In an obacure Shantung
Province of a multimillionaire
tanner who 1* anxious to contribute
(silver) for "the
country."
Liang Jen -po, described as a dark-
skinned, hunch-backed farmer, la a
resident of Liangchiahalang, In the
Huanghslen District of Shantung
He created a sensation when he
presented himself before General
Han Puchu. the Shantung Gov-
ernor, declaring that "every citizen
has a responsibility to his country
nurlng the present national crisis."
Liang told Oeneral Han of his de-
sire to devote his entire fortune to
saving China.
BOUGHT HIM TICKET
Liang declared that twenty per
cent of his fortune should go for
military expenditure, twenty per
cent for famine relief, and sixty per
cent for the development of na-
tional Industries. General Han
bought Liang a first-class railway
ticket and bundled him off post
haste to Nanking for discussion.
Thus far Liang has declined to
reveal the manner In which he
accumulated his fortune, which
even m American gold would totsl
$8,000,000. He said, however, that
he is ready to proceed with his
elaborate philanthropy. He said
his wealth has not been converted
Into cash, but that it consists of
real property in various parts of
the country.

have splendid powers of analysis
and are possessed of great business
acumen. You will succeed In almost

Your Health and Your Weight
DANGERS OF WEIGHT REDUCTION IN YOUNG WOMEN

assistance Is r
n on you. Monetary
Is not always the help
needed
Both men and women usually
marry alone In life rather than
early. They make splendid mates,
most solicitous of the other's wel-
fare and happiness and comfort.
The women cannot be labeled as |
thrifty, but on the whole they make
better than average housekeepers.
For those born on November 14. the
home Is a great social centre with
of a
It Is very pleasing to physicians
to notice that the fad for the slen-
der or thin figure among girls still
under twenty years of age is not as
popular as It was a year or two ago.
Although health writers have been
pointing out the dangers of tuber-
culosis and anaemia to young glrla
who cut down too much on their
food Intake, the real reason for the
fad becoming less papular Is that It
Is not now considered fashionable
to be "skinny."
During the period of this reduc-
ing of weight, the rate of increase
of tuberculosis among our young
girls, fifteen to nineteen years,
actually increased, whereas in every
other age period in boys and girls,
men and women, the rate has been
gradually decreasing. At this age a
girl is accumulating vital energy for
the treat needs of womanhood, and
If sufficient food Is not eaten to
build up the body — heart, lungs,
nerves, blood vessels, muscles — then
she will be Just that much below her
own best self all the rest of her life
One of the first things noticed by
friends and family Is the change In
the disposition of the young girl
who Is purposely keeping her weight
below normal. 8he becomes very
Irritable; nothing at home, at school,
or anywhere. In fact, suits her. She
becomes so Interested In herself and
her appearance that from a nat-
urally lovable girl she becomes
selfish, with no regard for other
people's feelings or other people's
rights.
This irritability and selfishness Is
due to a starvation of the nerves,
which depend upon good, wholesome
food for their dally needs, Just as
do all the other tissues In the body
There should be a little fat on

Then the organs in the abdomen
need support and Nature

ural amount of fat that should be
present.
These young girls who deliberately
keep their weight down have un-
protected nerve endings, thin blood,
a dropping of the abdominal organs,
poor chest expansion, and often a
weak muscular heart. They are
easily fatigued, have a poor resist-
ance to the ordinary ailments, and
seem to lack ambition and the
ability to concentrate.
As mentioned above, the fact that
the slender or skinny type is not
wanted on the stage any more is
ample evidence that, aside from the
health factor, the appearance of the
thin girl Is spoiled. She becomes
"scrawny" looking, skin pale or
sallow, expression of the face anx-
ious or drawn looking, and posture
of the body slouched or stooping.
Where the young girl is not trying
to reduce but nevertheless is un-
derweight, there are three things
necessary to increase weight, and
with increased weight more abun-
dant health and strength at this
most critical age.
First, good, wholesome meals,
with meat or eggs every day, in
addition to the usual bread, vege-
tables and starchy desserts.
Secdhd. plenty of sleep. Sleep Is
as important as food, because dur-
ing sleep no energy is being ex-
pended, and the food la thus used
for building purposes.
Third, some fresh air every day.

Gigantic Tunnel Is
Proposed to Unite
/ Europe and Africa
l<l<*u of Gibraltar Scheme I» Being Advanced by
Society — Undertaking Is Considered Feasible
With Cost Estimated at $25,000,000
After being In a state of prelimi-
nary study for a hall doten years—
a study not yet completed— the Idea
of building a tunnel under the
strait* that separate the Spanish
Peninsula from Africa has taken on
a more serious character and per-
manency with the formation of a
Society for the Advancement of the
Olbraltar Tunnel headed by the first
Republican Minister of State, Ale-
jandro Lerroux, and counting emi-
nent Spanish politicians, scientists,
barristers and experts in Its ranks.
The building of the tunnel would
not only unite Europe and Africa,
but would bring South America
closer to Europe than to the United
States. It would, In brief, be one
of the most Important engineering
feats of all time, writes Frank L.
Kluckhorn in The New York Times.
With rail connections that would
without doubt eventually be made,
It would bring London within eight
days (instead of eighteen by the
fastest ships) of the Cape. It would
bring Dakar, Frances large new
seaport down In Senegal, the Jump-
ing off place for South America,
within two days of Madrid, and the
Congo within four. This means that
It would be possible to go from Ma-
drid to Brazil In six days, to Argen-
tina in seven, and Chile In ten.
Still closer In the Immediate fu-
ture, it would unite the French
North African possessions with
Paris. As Colonel Pedro Jevenols,
father of the scheme puts It. "Two
million French colonial troops could
be moved through It Into Europe in
time of war."
UNDERTAKING FEASIBLE
^ moth possibilities, and difficult as
will be the engineering Job, It Is by
no means without precedents which
make it seem feasible. Colonel Jeve-
nols states, and quotes numerous
engineering authorities to the same
effect, that tunnels about as big
have already been built; the Simp-
Ion in Switzerland was constructed
below a long lake and a river, under
much the same conditions as those
at Gibraltar. The estimated cost of
the tunnel Is between •25,000,000 and
$30,000,000. which is by no means a
prohibitive sum.
Cut by ripping tides and strong
currents, the Straits of Olbraltar are
eight and three-quarters miles across
at their narrowest point and from
ten to twelve miles on the average.
No bridge system Is applicable there
because of the great depth of the
sea which makes supports Impos-
sible. The main span of the Hudson
River Bridge is 3,500 feet; the mini-
mum span in the straits would have
to be more than 15,000 yards.
The Hudson tubes are roughly
1.800 and 2.000 yards long. One of
the engineers who carefully studied
the Gibraltar route reported that
* necessary grades of 10 and 20 per
cent and the high cost of putting
in supports would make the tube
solution almost Impossible. If It
were to be attempted hn advocated
loose buoys at a depth of thirty
yards so constructed as to sway with
the current of two yards a second.
Archimedes' theory that if a body is
submerged far enough It will sup-
port itself would thus be brought
Into practical play. The modern en-
gineer concluded that a tube ten or
twelve yards in diameter and rough-
ly ten inches in thickness would do
the Job. But here the calculation
fell through because the weights
that could be carried would not
make the construction worth while.
The estimated cost was $20,000,000.
Without entirely dismissing the
possibility of tubes, the many engi-
neers and scientists who have co-
operated or had some part in the
years of experimental work turned
their attention to the practical
problem of building a tunnel which
would have to run '.bout fifty yards
* below the bed of the straits.
DIFFICULTY OF DEPTH
The first problem they faced was
* that of depth. At the narrowest
point of the straits the greatest
depth is about 650 yards, making
the necessary level of the tunnel 700
yards beneath the surface. At a
maximum grade the galleries would
have to be twenty-two miles long on
each side of the deepest point; thus
forty-four miles of tunnel would
have to be built. This means that
the tunnel could not be constructed
at the eastern end of the straits
near the Rock of Olbraltar itself.
On the other hand, toward the
Atlantic the maximum depths are
only 325 yards. With a maximum
grade, the length would have to be
only about ten miles on each side of
the deep point, or twenty miles In
all. The approaches would add but
little to the total.
The second great problem Is to
find a point at which rocks capable
of keeping water out run straight
across from Spain to Africa without

cross-cut flaws so serious that they
could not be filled In.
This seems to be the most difficult
Job of all. a flow of 638,000,000.000
cubic feet of water from the Atlan-
tic to the Mediterranean yearly and
a deep cross-current of 604.000.000,-
000 cubic feet tearing at great depths
In the opposite direction making
sounding difficult. This subterra-
nean current was first learned about
when a ship sunk by the corsair
Marseilles came up by a seeming
miracle to the west of where she
had gone down, despite the heavy
surface current in the opposite di-
rection. Subsequently, the presence
of the current was confirmed by an
analysis of saline deposits. Sound-
ing is indeed so difficult that it has
to be carried on by the explosion
and echo system.
GEOLOGICAL MAPPING
The data required for the tunnel
have made necessary a complete
geological mapping of the straits on
both sides. One authority on geol-
ogy says that both shores are part
of the so-called Mediterranean
Atlas and supposes that the straits
are merely a submersion of these
mountains. At any rate, Yebel
Tarik (or Olbraltar) and Yebel Musa
In Africa. "The Pillars of Hercules,"
which once marked the end of the
world, are of the same geological
formation. The assumption is that
this guarantees a fairly Impermeable
rock all the way across. The west-
ern part o' the strait* is chalky and
the centre is of clay, but strong
enough to keep out water. Sound-
ings showing the absence of mire
apparently confirm the belief that
The next great problem to be
overcome Is that of seepage. It is
one of the first to occur to a lay-
man, who can easily picture the
horror of cataracts bursting in and
drowning the workmen. Engineer-
ing experience, however, shows that
seepage can be overcome. In the
Slmplon Tunnel under the lake, 237
springs were found, some producing
375 gallons a second. Nine shafts
in Cornwall run under the sea for
two or three miles. There are
various systems by
can be carried away.
Another important consideration
will be getting air into the tunnel.
One authority holds that tunnels
up to twenty miles long can be built
without Intermediary ventilation.
One proposal for an English Chan-
nel tunnel was to throw up an in-
termediary Island. This tunnel,
however, would have to be twice as
long as the one projected at Olbral-
tar. Trains would help set the air
In motion In the proposed Gibral-
tar tunnel, thought It Is expected
that some additional means would
be employed.
Temperature of the tunnel offers
another point for study. Water testa
show a temperature of 54 above a
depth of 300 yards in the Straits,
and this leads to the belief the tem-
perature In the tunnel would be
something less than 88. Estimates
such as this have proved to be 95
per cent right In other tunnels. Re-
frigeration would be comparatively
easy to install.
REINFORCING CONSTRUCTION
According to at least two authori-
ties, a tunnel Is like a cannon. It
must be constructed to meet resis-
tance in all directions. The Swiss
engineer, Maillart. advises rein-
forced concrete. The process em-
ployed on the Catsklll aqueduct
provided for the use of metal or
copper plating. It has not yet been
decided which could be used In the
projected tunnel at Olbraltar.
Engineers studying the Olbraltar
project advocate two separate gal-
leries with frequent communications
between them. A stronger stratum
•r rock is required for the construc-
tion of one large shaft than two
smaller ones, they say. If their
plan Is carried out. It will be pos-
sible for eighteen trains to get
through the tunnel in each direc-
tion, with allowance for a six-hour
Interruption for repairs and evacu-
ation of water.
There are several machines which
could be used for actual drilling.
The choice would have to be de-
cided by the specific type of rock
as soon as the precise spot Is chosen.
The perforator ' of Colonel Beau-
mond. the electric or compressed air
drill, or rotative electric bombs
might be used.
These are the technical problems.
As Colonel Jevenols sum* It up,
"Progreso has always overcome the
material difficulties that have op-
posed the realisation of great Ideas."
The moral difficulties, or In other
words the political ones, are In this
case more obstinate.

ST. MARY'S, Ont.. Nov. 12 (CP).
-Even In the face of Indisputable
evidence, residents of this quiet
little town in Perth County tonight
were reluctant to believe the man
who robbed the Bank of Montreal
In Thorndale Thursday and, wher.
cornered, committed suicide, was
8ylvester J. Pocock.
Pocock and his family came to
St. Mary's from Hamilton eight
years ago and immediately gained
the high regard of townspeople
here. Pocock was engaged for
many years In the manufacture of
curtain rods.
He was also an inventor, and had
worked for some time on a proposed
self-service gasoline pump, which
would work on the principle of the
slot machine. He had Invented,
also a coal stoker, but both devices
were believed to have been left In
an experimental stage.
According to those who knew him
well. Pocock had been financially
embarrassed for some time and had
been ill besides.

Remembrance Day brought us a
Hood of memories. After the sol-
emn service at the Cenotaph at
Parliament Square we had no heart
to work, and went to Beacon H1U
Park to let our train of recollections
run wild.
It seems only the other day that
we were tramping wearily a long
and muddy road, In far away
France, In a steady rain, with a
heavy pack and a heavier heart, for
hostUlUes seemed as If they would
never end. Things were not too
bright for the Allied Armies In the
field.
Then came other memories; of
good comrades with whom we
shared all the discomforts and
laughed at most of the trials of
campaigning; with whom we longed,
at times, for the home fires and se-
curity of less troubled days. Many
of those comrades were suddenly
removed from the scene of conflict;
we never met again.
But, there are many happier rec-
ollections. The hundreds of good
fellows, who made life brighter with
their cheerful natures, enlivening
the most crucial moments with good
humor and good song. One, es-
pecially, comes to mind, Sergeant
N , who never grumbled or com-
plained, and who was the life of our
contingent. Today he is Just as
cheery as ever In his home town.
Calgary. That Is good work; may
we meet him again as we pass
through!
ANOTHER MEMORY
With our mind still on the pleas-
ant Incidents of life "In the field."
we came to a tangible souvenir of
those far away days In old France,
where popples blow, and where so
many old friends are asleep.
In a circular bed, surrounded by
a protecting hedge of privet, and
further guarded by some tall shrubs,
la an oak tree, fifteen years old.
which was raised from one of sew
eral acorns sent to Park Commis-
sioner Purdy In 1917 by a Canadian
Tommy.
It Is a sturdy young tree and
should, In course of time, develop
Into a giant oak like Its noblr par-
ent by the onion patch at Frap-
pelle. whose spreading boughs were
smashed by a shell one dark and
dismal night when a company of
men bivouacked beneath Its shel-
ter during an exciting episode.
May It long survive the storms
that come Its way and give Its own
acorns to flourish and give shade to
many, who will long have forgotten
how French oaks found their way

in Review of Evangelical Church*?** in
Fifteen Continental Countries
By REV DR. J K. UN8WORTH
CHURCHES closed by the police because of a dangerous
state of disrepair, or put up for public auction on account
of debts owing by the congregations, pastors receiving
a stipend of thirty cents per day, deaconesses and church
hchool teachers entirely unpaid for a year or more, are some
signs of the dark economic cloud that overhangs the Protestant
churches of Europe.
Startling revelation* of the needs i than In Oermany. where the evan-
of the evangelical churches were gellcal churches, according to the
laid by representatives of fifteen representative of the British Pres-
countries before the executive oT the byterlan churches, have to battle. |
Interchurch Aid Bureau that met not only with terrible economic clr
Ireland's Jumping Marvel
laH month at La Belotte on the
.shores of Lake Geneva. It was con-
vened under the guidance of Dr.
Adolf Keller, highly esteemed
evangelical leader, who Is secretary
of the bureau The reports told a
tale of mingled shadow and light,
of heroism and suffering, of ma-
terial struggle and spiritual per-
severance, of grim despair and pal-
pitating hope. Related without any
attempt at oratory, the naked facts
were, according to the English
delegate, "staggering to a Britisher,
and the cumulative effect was tre-
mendous."
( ItlJRC HES IN DISTRESS
Distress in varying degrees was
disclosed as country after country
was brought under review. In Po-
land, where there are one million
Protestants, the pastors had stipends
so small that they could not make
ends meet, and nov 30 per cent has
been cut off the plttftnces, while
many branches of church activity
have had to be reduced and others
stopped altogether. In Rumania the
state grants towards stipends of the
poorer ministers have not been paid
for a year; many Protestant schools
have had to close their doors and
the existence of about one hundred
and fifty charges is threatened.
Ministers In Greece are trying to
keep body and soul together on from
$8 to $10 a month.
Conditions In Austria beggar de-
scription, according to t'.ie Scottish
delegate, Rev. J. Macdonald Web-
ster. Writing in The Scots' Observer,
he gives one instance of a friend of
his In Hungary. The friend Is a
minister of a parish with more than
10,000 Presbyterians, partly resident
In a small town, but mainly on the
land. In the landward area there
is literally not one penny In cash;
the minister himself has received
no stipend whatever during this
year, nor have the nineteen teach-
ers in the schools of the congrega-
tions received any salary.
Trials and affliction as great as
they were In post-war years Is said
to be the distressing state of af-
fairs. Speaking generally, the
evangelical churches In Europe have
been dependent economically upon
the middle classes and the agricul-
turalists, but these have been so
sorelv hit that they face economic
destruction. Not only Is there a de
crease in national Income owing to
the calamitous condition of agricul-
ture, Industry and commerce, but
loss of real substance Is threatened.
A BITING POVERTY
It is true that in general there Is
a sufficiency of food, such as was
not the case ten or a dozen years
ago. Indeed. In many parishes the
granaries and cellars are stocked
with wheat, maize and wine, but
they can not be sold. The scarcity
of cash means a biting poverty that
rannot meet sickness, pay fees or
buy shoes and clothing for the chil-
dren.
Nowhere Is the situation worse
cumstances, but with persistent Ro-
manist and Communist propaganda.
With 5.800.000 unemployed and one-
third of the population in many
places upon extraneous relief, church
Income has fallen by $5,000,000 per
annum. Great home mission in-
stitutions, sick children's hospitals,
homes for the aged, orphanages and
such like, that are so marked a fea-
ture of church activities in Ger-
many, have had to close down.
Church sisters return to their
"mother houses," which, however,
lack means to feed even the old.
8o deplorable are the conditions
that requests for contributions of
even one shilling have been sent out.
Of 7,000 parishes in the Old Prus-
sian Union, the biggest individual
church of the forty million German
evangelicals, 1.000 are without min-
isters, and although there are men
to fill the vacancies there is no in-
come to pay the stipends. In Saxony
a whole series of churches have
been closed because their condition
has become a public danger. In
Hungary banks have foreclosed on
many congregations and the houses
of worship have been offered for
sale. The Hungarian Government
has, however, stepped in to prohibit
such action in future.
RESPONSE IS NIGGARDLY
That the evangelical churches
throughout the world are not aware
of these distressing conditions Is the
reason, the BrltLsh delegates state,
or the almost niggardly response to
the various appeal", that have been
sent out for financial aid. While
the economic difficulties of the
churches In America, Scandinavia
and Britain were not overlooked by
the committee, its members held
that these churches have nothing
to compare with the terrible state
of the sister churches in Europe
They fear that, unless the evan-
gelicals In Europe are enabled to
make a stand and advance, the
whole cause of world evangelization
will be Imperiled by collapse at its
centre.
Some assistance has been given.
Last year about $110,000 was con-
tributed to a loan association. Of
this. $70,000 was raised tn Switzer-
land. Only $30,000 came from the
United State* and Canada. $4,000
from Scotland and $2,000 from Eng-
land. The matter has engaged the
attention of the Canadian churches
and both the United Church of Can-
ada and the Presbyterian Church in
Canada have made donations.

BERLIN. Nov. 12 (AP).— Govern
mcnt spokesmen Friday welcomed
the statement of Sir John Simon,

Germany's armaments by the League

Sir John's three points do not
remove all doubts existing in the
Germany, the spokesman added, but
they "recognize the fundamentals of
the German standpoint."

in Coast Soccer
VANCOUVER, Nov. It (CP).—
Nanaimo City snatched apparent
defeat out of the fire In the last
minute of the Coast League game
against St Andrews at Con
Park this afternoon, Bevis
bllng the ball through in a
scrimmage following a corner
kick to make the count 1-1. The
Islanders deserved a point for
their great drive In the second
half, but St Andrews have only
themselves to blame that they did
not win through missing chances,
two of them of the softest var-
iety. Neat man and Manson each
had an opening a few yards from
goal with all the net to aim at,
but they hesitated and lost the
ball to a defender.
St. Andrews opened the scoring
after fourteen minutes when Eng-
lish mlsklcked in trying to clear a
glorious pass down the middle
from Surtees and Nestman pounced
on the bail and shot through as
Blewitt dashed out. Munro and
White shot through in the next
five minutes, but both goals were
disallowed for offside. Surtees
made some glorious passes to his
outride left and cejitrc, but they
were generally wasted and 8t. An-
drews' goal had severely lucky es-
capes before the equalizing gia.1
came. The playing pitch was wat-
erlogged In the ftrst half when rain
fell heavily, but it dried up a lot In

Sailors Capture Opening
Fixture After Hard Game
—Illness Hits Teams
The flu epidemic that is sweep-
ing the city played havoc with
the 8enior "B" Rugby matches
yesterday. Only one match
played, the Navy gaining a m
what lucky win over th<
at the new Navy ground. 6-3. Oak
Bay Wanderer*, with seven of
their forwards In bed, had to eon
cede the points to the Garrison,
and the Fifth Regiment were In
no better shape and could not
field a team against Victoria Col-
lege. This latter game may be
played during the week after
next, however. If the Rugby Union
gives permission.
The Navy-Soottlsh was a game of
forwards, the ball being greasy and
hard to handle. The soldiers had
a slignt edge in the loose scrums
and cu tried the ball into Navy
territory early in the game. Good
play by Beech, Navy fullback, whose
falling on the ball and Licking re-
lieved many dangerous situations,
saved the sailors' line. The first
score came from a forward rush
when Stark <icked up and went
over for a try. The -!ck failed.
The Navy responded with a similar
try from a forward ru&n. two or
three men falling on the tall. The
score at half-time was 3-3.
FORWARDS GO OVER
In the second half ^cotLsh kept
the Navy penned up pretty well
In their own twenty-five, but on ■
breakaway rush the Navy forward.;
again scored to make the score 6-3
The kick again failed Scottish
played up hard and were In easy
reach of their opponents' line when
the final whistle blew with the
score unchanged.
The game was rather -trappy as
was to be \ peeled early In the
season and with a wet ball. Scot-
tish forwards played well but were
too i-irllned to try 'and gather the
ball instead of taking It with their
feet. Oray refereed

A handful of spectators braved
the elements to watch the teams
In action, and were given a good
exhibition of how the game is
played when the grounds resem-
ble a swamp. Despite the terrible
state of the playing surface. It
was plainly evident that the Navy

Yesterday's game was mostly a
forward one, but there were flashes
of good three-quarter work, es-
pecially by the Navy.
BRILLIANT TRY
The game was only a few minutes
old when the first try was scored.
After Ken Adams had made a flne
kick to touch to put his team Just
over the centre line, Williams, on the
wing for the Navy, wa« given the
ball after a flne passing bout, which
included all the Navy's threes, and
dashed over the line. It was a
smart run by Williams and a
pretty score. McDonald failed to
convert from a difficult angle.
After the score. Wanderers started
to press, and Haines tried for a
drop goal from a penalty, but it
failed. For several minutes the
fighting Oak Bay team had the
Navy penned in their own twenty-
five, but they could not get through
for a try. Then the Navy threes
broke into action, and on a couple
of neat three-quarter movements,
carried play to Wanderers twenty-
flve. Robertson tried a place goal
from a penalty, but one of his team-
mates was offside when the ball was
kicked.
Play was around centre for sev-
eral minutes. The fleet "Chuck"
McDonald, after taking an outside
pass from Williams, came close to
scoring when he dashed thirty
yards, only to be forced out at the
corner flag. From the line-out Navy
carried the ball over the line, but It
went for a twenty-five kick. Navy
were on the attack as the half
whistle sounded.
NAVY ON ATTACK
Navy 1 A much the best of the
game in the second half, and were
seldom out of Wanderers' territory.
For the first twenty minutes they
hammered at the Oak Bay line, and
twice forced twenty-flve kicks. A
free kick which Adams placed well
down, almost brought a score, but
one of the Wanderers' backs picked
the ball up and kicked it into touch
in goal.
On the resultant flve-yard scrum,
Bamfleld crashed through the Wan-
derers' defence for a try near the
goal posts McDonald converted
easily. Five minutes later Barker
slid over near the corner of the field
for the last try of the game, which
went unconverted.

MONTREAL, Nov. 12 (CP).—
The National Hockey League

the second game of the season for

Bruins showed all their old-time
power and played a careful, robust
game, waiting for the breaks and
coasting along under their early
lead. Canadlens had their usual
speed and dash, but lacked the
•coring punch. In Boston territory
passes went wrong and shots were
hasty and wild. Tiny Thompson
Jumped around like a Jumping Jack

second period, but Canadlens could
not score on hlfn.
Art Chapman made the play for
Burch's first period goal. In the

caught the Canadlens' defence un-
awares and out of position, and
"Red" notched Bruins" second coun-

fourth Bruin goal on a lone play,
romping down the right lane for a
tricky shot to the corner of the Ca-
nadlens' cage. *
Canadlens Just could not score.
They even hud an edge on terri-
torial play throughout the game,
but passes were wild and shots weak
and harmlessly wide of the mark.
All their good shots came from a
respectable distance. Shore was a
standout on the Bruins' defence as
usual.

Wanderers came through with
wins In the opening matches of
the Intermediate schedule yester-
day. The College defeated a de-
pleted Fifth Brigade team by a
lone try at Victoria High School,
while the Oak Bay lads beat the
Scottish, 6-0, at Oak Bay Park.
Both games were close and the
standard of Rugby was good con-
sidering the conditions.
In the Wanderers-Scottish game
the first half was scoreless with the
play zlg-zagglng from one end to
the other. Wanderers showed bet-
ter combination and understanding
between the outsldes, but the ball
was hard to handle and the Scot-
tish marked their men well. Both
packs of forwards worked hard and
took the ball well In rushes down
the field
The first score came early tn the
second half when the Wanderers'
threes got possession and a good
movement resulted In Oomall go-
ing over far out In the corner. The
kick failed. The game was pretty
even after this with both sides
pressing Shortly before time the
Wanderers were awarded a penalty
for offside near their opponents'
goal, and Allen, made no mistake
with the kick. The game ended with
the score 6-0
WHITLER S TRY WINS
BUI Whltler's try from a line out
gave Victoria College a 3-0 victory
over a Fifth Regiment team yester-
day. The score came In the second
half after an even game, with the
College forwards showing up a little
better than their opponents. Both
sides found the ball hard to handle
and the game was largely a forward
tussle. The gunners started with
eleven men. but picked up three
during the game to finish with
fourteen.
The play was good on the whole
with both packs working well E. A.

Tony had declared he was willing
to spot McLarnln ten pounds In

But, men more wise in ring

been the fate of such ambitious

be the same as befell Al Singer and
others, who fell quickly before the

tive eleven and St Andrews,
present leaders of the First
Division on the Mainland. Prep-
arations for the match are al-
ready under way. and the kick-off
is (dated for 2:45 o'
being the only Coast
locally, a record attendance Is ex
Added Interest will centre over
the match, as It will mark the Ini-
tial appearance of the Scots here
this season. So much has been
written about them since the
Mainland schedule opened that
the fans are anxiously waiting to
see this machine In action. 8t.
Andrews Is stronger than last year,
having added strength to the back
and front divisions. At present
they are holding a half-game lead
over Nanalmo in the race for the
honors.
ti of the local eleven early
this week Is also holding the In-
terest of the spectators, as It is
predicted that some changes will
be made as far as the forward line
Is concerned. Victoria lost Its
first game of the series to Nanalmo
at the local pitch. 2-0. In a game
that at least should have been a
draw or a win for the locals, as
they had the better of the plav
Victoria offered no excuses for the
defeat, stating that It was Just the
"breaks of trie game." The next
game at Nanalmo was a different
story, Victoria winning 3-2, after
a great exhibition. With a disor-
ganized front rank, the Capital
City eleven lost its third fixture to
New Westminster Royals, 2-1. Aft-
er this exhibition the officials shook
their heads, and decided that some
new blood would have to be added
to the forward attack for the next
upon
the line, but ad-
tlon Indicates that
faces may be seen
against 8t. Andrews. Officials of
the league will decide all this at
their next meeting. One thing cer-
tain, Louis De Costa, Victoria's
great goalie, will be guarding the
net. while Fred Gibbons la almost
sure of a fullback position. After Joe
Crowe's fine performance against
the Royals, It will be a toes up be-
tween him and Joe Watt for the
other fullback position. Victoria!,
Intermediate rank of Eddie Vlggers,
Dill Boyd and Terry Peers, is not
expected to be changed. This trio
worked wonders In the Nanalmo
and New Westminster matches, but
their forwards failed to make the
beat of the chances given them,
away.
Victoria lias plenty of fine for-
wards, and their name* will come
up for discussion at the next
gathering of the Coast Leaguer*
With such fine attacking players
as Noel Morgan, Mike Wag land.
Barney Burns, "Scotty" Stewart.
Hairy Youson. John Watt. Cyril
Connorton, Edgar Borde, Freddy
Price, Bert Savllle and Mall, the
bosses of local football should
select a powerful offensive.
BOATH TO PLAY
St. Andrews will come over with
a powerful eleven and Victoria
will have to be at their best to
get the decision. The playing here
of a youngster r.amed Boath, who
recently came out from Aberdeen,
Scotland, where he performed In
the Junior division, will probably be
one of the highlights of the match.

Seattle Grappler Pins Yak-
ima Man Two Out of Three
— Griffin Beats Peers
De« Anderson. Seattle's pride,
chalked up another win last night
at the Tillicum gymnasium when
he took two out of three falls to
beat Carl Mossong, Yakima grap-
pler. Anderson had the edge all
the way hut lost the second fall
when Mossong nailed him with a
flying tackle.
In a double semi-wind-up.
Frank Draper. Vancouver, beat
"Cyclone" Burns. Minneapolis,
and "Fat" Griffin took the meas-
ure of Johnny Pears. Al Sparks.
Salt take City heavy, refereed the
two latter bouts and took more
punishment than the wrestlers.
He retired In favor of Fred BIs-
senden, who controlled the main
event.
Anderson, as usual, stuck to clean,
straight wrestling until Mossong
began with rabbit punches and el-
bows. The Seattle man opened up
with wrist lock* and short arm scis-
sors and soon had Mossong in dif-
ficulty. Anderson then tried shoul-
der butts and flying wrist locks, and
Mossong began to rough things un
and was swinging wildly at the bell
Anderson came out of his comer
with a rush In the second, grabbed
Mossong for three flying wrist locks,
the same number of shoulder butt*,
and then fell on him for the first
fall. Mossong got rough In the next
round and caught Anderson with
two flying mares and then nailed
him with a flying tackle and body
press to tie the bout up. Anderson
came right bark and after both men
had fallen out of the ring he picked
up Mossong for an airplane spin
and body slam to win the bout.
ALL THREE BATTLE
In the first seml-wlnd-up. "Cv-
clone" Burns started breezing with
the referee right from the first bell
Burns rocked Draper with his fist
and Sparks socked Burns At one
time all three men were tangled up
In the middle of the ring, but
things eventually got sorted out and
Draper won the bout. Burns took
the first fall in the second round
with a Boston crab, Draper conced-
ing the fall. Sparks awarded the
Vancouver man the second fall
after repeatedly warning the "Cy-
clone" about using his fists. Draper
took the third In the fourth round
with a reverse body slam.
In the other semi-wlnd-up two
local boys, • Fat" Orlffln and Johnny
Pears put on a good show with the
asststance of Al Sparks Orlffln
didn't like Sparks' way of retaliat-
ing when he hit Pears. He thought
one man was enough to tackle, ao
he knocked the big Salt Lake man
out of the ring and Jumped on him
Pears decided to take a hand, so he
Jumped on Orlffln. and Chief Heat-
ley was about to add hia weight to
the struggle when thev called It
quits and went on with the bout
Ortflln took the first fall with a
cradle rock. Pears the second with
a flying wrist lock and body preas.
and Griffin won the bout with a
series of flying tackles and a body
preas. Pears used more holds and
appeared the better wrestler, but

the one and touches new dramatic
heights as the other. In going
back to pure romance she brings
freshness, and the mellow tender-

Norma Shearer of old In a refresh-

lightful
Fredrlc March also has two roles.
In both he Is the suitor for Nor-

"Rebecca of Sunnvbrook Farm,'
With Marlon Nixon, Opening
The Fox version of the famous
Kate Douglas Wlggin and Charlotte
Thompson masterpiece, "Rebecca of
Sunnybrook Farm." comes to the
Columbia Theatre tomorrow. Mar-
lon Nixon as Rebecca is an imagi-
native, Impulsive girl, whose pen-
chant for adopting everyone's trou-
bles, a remembered trait of the
heroine In the original book, is again
made the motivating Influence in
the plot.
Opening at Sunnybrook Farm,
created for the filming In ail its
peaceful beauty near Santa Cruz,
Cal.. the film story carries Rebecca
quickly to her aunts' home In River-
boro. Here she Uvea with Aunts
Jane and Miranda, played by Mae
Marsh and Louise Closser Hale, a
process that involves many heart-
aches In the learning.
Here, too, she finds Jack-O-Lan-
tern, son of the village ne'er-do-
well, played by Alan Hale, and an
unwed mother, portrayed by Eula
Guy. Her innocent and quite under-
standable attempt to adopt Jack-O
as a member of the aunts' house-
hold is met with stern rebuke from
puritanical, cold-hearted Aunt Mir-
anda; but she finds solace In the ap-
pealing sympathy given by her Aunt
Jane and by the kindly understand-
ing of Dr Adam Ladd. a part made
vivid and believable by Ralph Bel-
lamy in his first entirely sympa-
thetic screen role.
Also on the same bill Is "Devil and

The past week has seen the birth
of a new style of entertainment In
Victoria, nonstop variety at the
Crystal Garden Theatre. This ven-
ture has met with public approval
and the programme given has been
one of general excellence and tal-
ent, four or five turns having been
of outstanding merit. This week
there will be a change of pro-
gramme, with many new artists,
and those of last week s programme
retained will give different turns.
It takes a little time to accustom
the public to a new form of enter-
tainment, but the general opinion
has been that these performances
are supplying a want by giving
novelty of amusement.
It has been decided that only on
Wednesdays and Saturdays the per-
formance will commence at 2 p.m..
continuing until 10:45 p.m. On other
days of the week the performance
will begin at 6:30 p.m. until 11 p.m.
The co-operation of the band of
artists has been most keen, as all
are equally Interested In the success
of this venture with the manage-
ment, and It Is hoped that the peo-
ple of Victoria will recognize this
fact and by their patronage help
and encourage the many young
people employed This also gives
them an opportunity of practicing

a marvelous cast at the Romano
Theatre tomorrow In "Aloha," a

story by Thomas H. Ince and J. O.

Ben Lyon' plays a young San
Francisco business man who is In
the tropics to learn his fathers
copra business from the ground up.
In spite of his better Judgment, he
falls in love with Ilanu, a beautiful
half-caste played by Miss Torres.
Ilanu has refused to choose a mate
from among the native swains and
Is, thereby, an outcast from her
tribe.
When Lyon marries her and takes
her home to his stormy old father
and his snobbish sister and his dis-
appointed sweetheart and their
ritzy friends, the story swings from
drama to comedy to thrills and
emotional tempests.

CHAPTER XVI
Dick came Into the studio hur-
riedly. He turned Judys head a
little. "Talk across the microphone
more' he said.
"But I thounht you had to talk
straight into it." Judy said.
"Not always." Dick said curtly
"Depends on your voice. Your voice
deepens too much when you talk
directly into the mike. You know,
that's how Amos n' Andy work all
those extra volcea. They do them
all themselves. But it's a question
of Just how they stand, how far
from the mike, how they turn their
heads, whether they talk across or
straight into or on an angle— all
that"
He disappeared through the open
door again, he reappeared back of
the glass, he signalled for her to
begin. And Judy, her mind whirl-
ing, began. But as she read the
words Elton Day had written she
kept wondering about Dick Mason
Why he had drawn away from her
so suddenly, so utterly. Why there
was always a line of worry about
his deep eyes, and a tight, hard line
around his mouth.
"I do much of my own sewing,"
she heard her voice saying. Judy
Allison, who worked six weeks on a
pair of bloomers In sewing class at
school, and then was told by her
instructor that she had sewed them
inside out! Judy Allison giving ad-
vice on sewing! Funny! Too funny!
"I recommend that you try this
it for yourself." What ex-
had occupied Someone turned on
the lights. The studio glared now.
and Judy felt the Intense heat of
the big clusters of lights overhead
The big door of the studio opened
A girl appeared. A new girl. Not
a girl. A woman Fifty, at least,
wearing too much rouge. With the
reminder of a young beauty that
had gone a long time ago With —
Judy saw now— with run-over heels
and a long run In one stocking,
carefully mended. And a coat
grown shiny In Its desperate effort
to go on being smart.
"Oh." the woman said. "I'm not
first after all. then?"
She talked. like a woman In a play,
putting each word by itself. 8he
made a sort of ritual of opening her
coat, of sitting down beside Judy.
Then she coughed genleely.
"I'm Alicia R e n aV e n t. It's
French." she said, all in a breath.
"Oh. I'm Judy Allison."
•Charmed." The shabby lady
extended a languid hand. Evidently
she expected It to be shaken. Judy
obliged, finding the hand oddly cold,
oddly frail.
"I'm here by special request of the
client,'' the lady said now.
"Indeed?"
"Yes. He had heard about my
work And so he sent for me. And—"
Suddenly, she reeled slightly. She
steadied herself with one hand.
Then her eyes closed. Her face
was stark white.
Judy Jump-d up, looked around
eared. "What's the story, son?"
"Been living for four months on
thirty cents a day. she says. Money
ran out a couple of days ago. Oot
» bAd cold. Maybe pneumonia, she
thinks. I'm getting a doctor."
Judy fumbled in her purse
"No." the blonde g:rl said. "She'll
be taken care of— now somebody
knows she's starving But It's tough,
before you finally have to tell em.
Yep"
iCou mean you
"Me?" The girl laughed. "I got
pretty hungry trouplng. so I came
home I live with the folks now.
That makes It all right on the food
But before I got wise to myself and
came home "
Before I got wise to myself! Sup-
pose she, Judy Allison, were that
woman across the hall, being taken
off to a charity hospital, being fed
by the city? Suppose it happened
some day? It could.

Girls moved past Judy going Into
the studio. Some of the same girls
she had seen the first time. Some
new girls. All of them intent, each
of them keeping up her own pre-
tense of success. Girls who came
from this little town or that to be
successful in Chicago. Girls who
might be hungry tomorrow; who
might be living on thirty cents a day
right now. .
And all of them with the same
desperate, yearning look In their
eyes. A took that said. "I've got to
stay, whether you go home or not.
I've got to live, even If you starve."
A look that might be in Judy Alli-
son's eyes tomorrow or in a month
or a year. As It was in the blonde
girl s eyes even now.

indicated, she couldn't go wrong,
she couldn't fall to sound convinc-
ing.
It wasn't hard after all. It was
rather fun, making yourself believe
you really mean what somebody
else had written. And thinking all
this, Judy's voice quickened, she for-
got the microphone, she realized
only that her voice sounded oddly
small In the high room until she
heard Dick calling from the door.
"Yes, Dick?"
"You're going a lot too fast. I've
been signaling to slow down."
"Oh. I'm sorry."
He grinned.
"I know. Judy. You got so inter-
ested In talking. People always do.
first time on the mike Well, we've
got two minutes. Try these things:
Breathe more quietly. I could hear
your breath. And break oftener."
"Break?"
"Like this." He took the script.
Now, standing In front of the mlcfo-
phone, he cecmcd to change In a
moment. His shoulders were held
back, his chest seemed to force the
word.t ->lralght Into the microphone*,
he read slowly, easily and somehow
he forced a small. Intimate chuckle
Into his voice. Judy understood now!
why women, listening miles away,!
were so fure he was talking to the»\.
and to them only.
8he tried It, achieving a gro-
tesque parody of his deep voice.
"Like this?" she asked, and tried
again, carefully.
•Right.' he said And Judy
wished the hard line would not show
so quickly at the corner of Dick's
mouth; wished she knew why his
eyes seemed so worried, sometimes,
for a second only But she said
nothing.
Dick was pointing at the clock.
"They're ten minutes late now,"
he said, chuckling. "Ought to be
along soon. So I'm leaving you.
I'm not supposed to have anything
to do with your being here, you see.
The client and I will be upstairs
with the salesman— because I'm to
announce the programme and he
wants my advice on the voices.
But—"
"But that's hardly right, Dick
Because — "
He chuckled again. "Because I'll
vote for you? Oh. but I won't.
The minute I get up there I don't
even know you. And if some other
voice is really better than your's.
Judy, then all I can do Is—"
"Is say so. Of course." Judy
agreed, smiling. But a small
jealous voice In her heart insisted
that there are moments when too
much honesty Is hardly kind.
"Then— try hard."

He was gone. She could see him
talking for a moment with the gold-
toothed radio man. Then a third
man appeared, a thin, dark man she
never had seen before. This man

the studio. Water, of course. Water.
In the hall she saw a water cooler.
She ran Into the hall, breathless,
soaked her handkerchief in the icy
water, ran back, dabbed hurriedly at
the woman's face. She did not
move. Now Judy waved frantically
at the dark man in the control -
room He did not seem to see her.
She shook the woman, slightly, then
harder. The woman's hamTs fell
down at her sides limp and frighten-
ing.
Trouble?" she heard a girl's voice
ask.
"This woman! I don't know
what's happened!"
"Wait! I'll get somebody!"
Now people appeared The girl —
It had been the blonde girl of yes-
terday's audition. And two young
boys, pages, ushers, messengers by
turn. And a man who stared at
the unconscious woman, muttered
something, suddenly was beside her,
ordering tlM bors to get a doctor
to help him carry the woman to a
room where she could lie down, to
bring water.
"Better get her over across the hall
Into that client's room," the blonde
girl cut In. practical and unflurrled.
"f-he's Just fainted, that's all. Done
It myself a couple of times. Here,
son. You're a good strong boy. Help
the lady"
The man and the boys struggled
across the hall with the woman.
Judy followed, terrified. But the
blonde girl stopped her.
"No use," she said. "You can t do
anything for her. Neither can I.
Walt!" One of the page boys reap-
blonde girl asked.
"Yes."
'Oh."
The blonde girl moved away. The
moment of companionship, of pity,
was over. Judy was her rival, she
was Judy's enemy, nothing mat-
tered but the Job and who would
get it.
Judy almost turned away from the
studio, from the scene that would
be repeated in a moment, from the
microphone waiting for all these
voices, to be thrown out Into the air
and lost forever.

Peter Rabbit is one of thoee
happy-go-luoky people who seem
never to have anything important
to do beyond getting enough to
eat And this Is never very diffi-
cult for Peter In the Summer, for
always there Is plenty of green
things to his liking wherever he may
be. So with nothing In particular
to do. Peter sometimes finds time
hanging rather heavily and doesn't
know Just what to do with It. At
such times he is likely to wander
off In quest of adventure or to call
on his neighbors In quest of the
latest news on the Oreen Meadows
or In the Oreen Forest or around
the Smiling Pool.
Just now Peter was at the SmlN
lng Pool. He had found Jerry and
Mrs. Muskrat too busy to talk
Grandfather Frog was dozing and
refused to be disturbed Redwing
the Blackbird was dutifully helping
Mrs. Redwing to .'eed four hungry
babies The Merry Little Breezes
of Old Mother West Wind were
somewhere else and there wasn't a
ripple on the Smiling Pool.
"I wish I had gone up to the Old
Pasture Instead of coming over
here." muttered Peter "There Is
no one to talk to and nothing to
see "
"Who says there Is nothing to
see?" demanded Spotty the Turtle,
who was taking a sun bath on the
end of a log Just below where Pe;er
was sitting, but. because he hadn t
moved and was partly hidden by
rushes, hadn't been seen by Peter.
"Oh. hello Spotty!"
Peter. "I didn't see you."
"I didn't think you did.'
Spotty dryly. "It Is queer how
little some people realiy use their
eyes Not that I wanted to be seen
I dldn t But when I heard you
say that there Is nothing here to
see It set me to wondering what
your eyes are for Certainly they
are big enough to see things."
"I didn't mean anything personal
by that remark." Peter hastened to
explain "What I really meant was
that there Is nothing interesting
going on, nothing worth watching
Don t you find It a bit dull your-
self?"
"No." replied Spotty I never
find it dull. I often sit here by
the hour and there is always some-
thing going on worth watching. No.
I nerer find it dull "
Prter grinned "You wou'dn't."
said her 1 su*p?:t It d*eii t take
much to interest you. Now. whal
, "Who says there is nothing to see?"
demanded Spotty the Turtle.
Is there going on right now that can
be called really Interesting? To be
sure. Redwing and Mrs. Redwing are
busy enough, but watching them go
and come with food for crying ba-
bies Isn't my idea of Interesting."
"So you don't see anything Inter-
esting going on here now?" said
Spotty.
"Not a thing." replied Peter,
frankly
"You wouldn't." retorted Spotty.
"Come down here close to the
water."
"What for?" asked Peter.
"Never mind what for; Just do as
I say." replied Spotty.
Peter hesitated a moment, then
hopped down to the very edge of the
water. Right In front of him
grasses and rushes were growing out
of the water.
"Now we'll see how much use you
make of those eyes of yours." de-
clared Spotty "Look at these
grasses and rushes where they are
under water and Just above the
water and tell me what you see?"
Peter looked and at first saw
nothing. Then he saw some queer -
looking brown creatures moving
around the roots and climbing up
the stems toward the surface They
were ugly-looking Insects. Those
climbing were rather broad One
right In front of him had crawled
up out of the water and rested
Probably it had been there some

More Than 500,000 Miles in Twelve Months,
Carrying Many More Passengers
Pacts, which prove beyond dls-
iVile the rapid advance of air trans-
port, were cited In the chairman's
speech to shareholders at the an-
nual general meeting of Imperial
Airways recently. In surveying the
year ended March 31 last, Sir Eric
Geddes was able to compare a totai
mileage flown of 1.722.000 with 1,-
M.OOO miles in the previous twelve
months, to point to only 2.80 per
cent of canceled services on all the
British lines, European and extra-
Kuropean, as against 532, and to
( lalm that operational costs have
been halved since 1925.
This Is a conslderbale achieve-
ment in a new field of endeavor,
where even nowadays the operating
companies are frequently obliged to
undertake pioneer work in extend-
ing and developing their routes. Not
yet Is air transport so clearly un-
derstood as rail and sea transport.
New airways are constantly being
inaugurated. Machine design has
not yet even approaclied near final-
ity. In the chairman's words: A large fishery corporation is In

runs.
A scheme to introduce a bi-
weekly service from London at least
as far as Kenya, doubling the pres-
ent service, may emerge from the
journey, while the commissioning of
the new monoplanes Is confidently
expected to lead to an early reduc-
tion of two days in the time taken

Britain is concerned, the following
factors have to be taken Into con-
sideration: A number of well-known
tramp owners have gone out of busi-
ness, and their places as inter-
national carriers have been taken
by Scandinavian and other Conti-
nental owners. Their vessels have
all been sold and renamed.
Some foreign governments, par-
ticularly the United States. Italy
and France, subsidize their mercan-
tile marines by subventions on a
lavish scale and at the expense of
the taxpayers.

The traveler, arriving late at his
destination, had to be content with
cold chicken for his evening meal.
When he had finished he noticed a
tramp outside the window, eyeing
the remainder of the chicken hun-
grily, so he passed it through to
him. A year later the traveler
called at the same hotel for an-
other meal,
a waitress. She sought out the
manager, and pointing out to the
i visitor, said excitedly: "There e la
sir! Thats the man who ate the
chicken-bones and all."

"Ml get work out of the laziest
man that ever lived." said the fiery
little Welsh skipper of the full
rigged ship I^rnlca as he went Into
the foc'sle to rouse out the giant
Kelly whom, he alleged, was sham-
ming sickness Kelly, all shaved,
with his face rubbed with chalk to
make htm look pale, lay back In his
bunk with a novel and smoked his
Pipe
"Come out of that!" cried the
skipper, springing at Kelly like a
bantam mleht spring at a walrus
But Kelly remained Immovable as
the Sphinx. "If you weren t too big
to go through the hatch." shouted
the skipper. ' I d put you down the
lazarette and feed you on bread and
water till we get to Portland. To-
morrow 1 11 take off my coat and
make you 'turn to. "
But that night the wind sprang
up and blew with hurricane force.
All hands were railed on deck to
shorten sail, and Kelly sprang into
life. Like a roaring bull he sang
cheerily on the ropes and worked
up aloft like a Trojan till the ship
was "hove to" under a goose-wing
main lower topsail, and was de-
clared by the skipper to be the beat
sailor on board when he "got a
move on
did fine in thai
Kelly." said the aklpper after the
gale abated, but no more laying
up from now on."
"Aye, aye. sir. answered Kelly,
calmly And he went forrard and
flopped into his bunk, on the sick
list again, and neither the skipper
nor all hands could get him out
again till the ship docked at Port-
land, when he deserted with
of the crew.

A pair of handcuffs dangled from

WEEKLY REVIEW
CANADIAN BONDS
TORONTO, Nov. 12 — Now that
the long-term Dominion loan has
been practically all disposed of,
Interest of investors and Investment
houses will turn again to the rank
and file of Issues, some of which,
doubtless, have been deferred until
the Dominions were out of the way.
Another reason advanced was that
a 4 per cent bond was offered at a
substantial discount instead of at a
higher rate. The question has been
discussed locally as to what effect
the loan to the banks of 835,000,000
by the Government enabling the
latter to extend circulation and
credit will have. It Is felt that In
the long run bond prices will tend
to move higher on the grounds that
inflation has the tendency to in-
crease prices. Another Influence
tending to strengthen bond prices is
easy money, which in the two lead-
ing financial centres, London and
New York, have reached close to 3
per cent basis for high grade Gov-
ernment Issues.

WINNIPEO. Nov. 12 (CP). —
Wheat values advanced in the past
week to show net gains of 1 1-4 to
1 7-8 cents between the close of
trading. November 4. and the close,
November 10. The nearby months,
November and Deceinbe-. Rfgj
scored a gain of 1 1-4 cents, while
Mav was no 1 1-2 to 1 5-8 cents,
and July. 1 3-4 to 1 7-8 cents.
The money market went awry
early In the week and this was a
major 'Influence on price trend In
the grain markets. The Canadian
dollar dropped sharply »t New York,
thus improving Canada's position In
the export market, and this led to
considerable buying of wheat at
Winnipeg.
A little artificial support was be-
lieved to have been Introduced In
the December future, but lt wai
neither aggressive nor sustained
and for the most part the market
stood on Its own feet.
Export business was a disappoint-
ment and little was added to the
forward bookings except at Van-
couver. So far about 25.000.000
bushels have cleared from the Pa-
cific port out of a total of 70.000,000
bushels shipped from all ports.
At the close Thursday, the No-
vember wheat future was quoted at
48 7-8; December 46 1-4; May.
50 3-8. and July. 51 5-8.
Exporters, millers and others were
bidders for all grades of cash wheat
except No. 1 Northern, which con-
tinued a drug on the market and
was delivered dally against the No-
vember contract. Durum wheats
were also wanted at Improved
spreads.
Oats and barley traded In small
lots for export and domestic
kets. but rye and flaxseed wen
lected.
Gains or 1 3-4 cents to 1 1-8 cents
were recorded In oats, while barley
advanced 2 1-2 cents to 2 3-4 cents
for the week, and flaxseed 3 1-4
cents to 1 3-4 cents. The rye mar-
ket gained 2 1-2 cents to 3 1-8 cents.

WINNIPEG. Nov. 12 CCP).— Tht
policy to be followed by the nrw
administration under Franklin D
Roosevelt In the disposal of th4
United States wheat surplus U
causing speculation In the grain
trade the world over, says The Win-
nipeg Free Press today.
At present there is an agreement
whereby the Farm Board surplus ol
many millions of bushels will not be
placed on the open market until
after January. 1033. United States
wheat prices at present are not on
an export parity on account ol
money exchange, and The Free
Press says:
IS DISTURBING FACTOR
"Whether the United 8tates sur-
plus will be held until parity obtains
or "dumped'* regardless Is a dis-
turbing factor In the mind of the
foreign buyer who has noted an-
other large surplus from Atistralls
and Argentina will be available to
him early In the new year.
"There Is no Indication the growei
of wheat In the United States in-
tends to reduce his acreage.
With this prospect and the
surplus of grain now on hand,
of it several years old. the United
States authorities may take the
tlon to place their grain In
petition with that of Canada
the Southern Hemisphere countries.
IMPORTERS DALLYING
"Under these conditions It is nol
surprising the Importer U dallylns
In his purchases and that world
shipments of wheat to date are very
considerably less than a year ago
It Is true Canada's exports have al-
most doubled those of a year ago
but the Dominion has not >et
touched its 1032 surplus and will
have done well If the old crop carry-
over of 135.000.000 bushels Is
before the new year."

START SALE Of

Preparations Well Advanced
Under Human Interest
Plan of Operation
Preparation! are now well in hand
for the launching of the campaign
In support of the Human Interest
bonds in this city to give assistance
to the unemployed here. Colonel
T. B. Monk, who is taking the
management oi the campaign, is
Appealing to all organizations to
lend every aid possible ia boosting
the sale of these bonds.
The Human Interest Bond move-
ment is really a "Find a Job" cam-
paign. It wis adopted by the rep-
resentatives of organizations
throughout the city who went Into
the whole subject of aid. and after
very careful consideration reached
the conclusion that this method was
the best one for getting direct re-
sults.
Colonel Monk, when seen in con-
nection with the movement, offered
the opinion that under this system
money will be put into circulation
throughout the city at once, which
is a most desirable end to be at-

on the basis of the
axpaye. to pi
pay, and
APPROVES PLAN
He believes that the method
adopted meets the conditions that
now exist. He, therefore, appeals
to the citizen who may have any
work to do In or about the home, to
take advantage of the plan and
employ a man or woman who needs
the assistance to be so obtained.
Colonel Monk contends this Is a
wise course to follow even from a
selfish standpoint. It may mean
that the amount of the bonds pur
chased and used In affording em-
ployment may yield a dividend in
as much as the taxes may be kept
correspondingly lower. He Is mak
ing the appeal that It pays to em
ploy a person to do the needed work
about the place, rather than be
confronted with an added tax rate
to grant relief.
out that the bond Is Issued by the
Oolden Rule Association for the
purpose of creating work.
OBJECTS SOUGHT
"Its use by the purchaser will
create Its own human Interest by
sustaining a man's morale, relieving
a woman's anxiety, supplying food
and clothing to children" Is the
statement which the bond bears.
The method employed In connec-
tion with the bond sale Is a simple
one. The bonds are for $1 each,
with two coupons attached repre-
senting a value of 50 cents each.
These will be bound In books of
five each, to be sold by the workers
tn the movement for $5. which will
be paid Into the City Treasury.
There are two methods of dealing
with the purchased bonds by citi-
zens. The purchaser may pay a
man or woman who has been em-
ployed about his place by means of
the coupons, which will be redeemed
at the City Hall. The other method
by which bonds may be used after
having been bought by the citizen
Is to present, them at the City Hall
to be used by the city In relief work
and under the arrangements en-

ORGANIZE CAMPAIGN
Preparations arc being made for
having canvassers out early offer-
ing these bonds for sale to citizens.
The Chamber of Commerce, both
senior and Junior branches, are co-
operating in the work and will be
provided with bond forms. All the
school teachers of the city will also
have them. The service clubs and
other organizations are also co-op-
erating along the same line.
In the opinion of Colonel Monk.
If this move is taken hold of In a
whole-hearted manner, its results
should be of great assistance In the

TEACHERS' PANEL
The teachers' panel on the com-
mittee presented a report worked
out In four scales, or zones, which
could be applied to large cities,
smaller cities and municipalities.
And grades in rural and isolated
areas. The whole scale, it noted,
was for "normal times," from which
a percentage reduction could be
made in bad times, or an Increase,
If desirable, in times of prosperity.
Tables were also given, comparing
teachers' salaries In leading Cana-
dian cities, and generally in On-
tario.
The panel commented that two
members of the public panel sat on
ule to be applied In four nonterrl-
torlal zones, weighing cities and
communities more on their coat
grouping and population, though
this was not expressly set out In the
report
The report from the teachers
stated that any standard schedule
set will inevitably Influence the
actual salaries paid, and in their
opinion would cut down the higher
remunerations and not raise the
lower. The teachers' panel finally
asserted that the public panel went
at Its task with the object of reduc-
ing aggregate salaries, to save pro-
vincial and municipal taxation.
The teachers' panel was composed
of Harry Charlesworth, chairman;
J. Sanford, Miss J. J. MacKeruie,
Miss H. R. Anderson. Ira Dll worth.
O. 8. Ford, T. W. Woodhead, T. Aid-
worth arm H. McArthur, represent-
ing the British Columbia Teachers'
Federation.
Judge Cayley acted as chairman
for the Joint committee, which was
composed of eighteen members, h-
vlded Into the teachers' and public
the Kldd Committee, which had] panels, which met as subcommit-
recommended a straight 25 per cent tees, and finally agreed to present
cut in teachers' salaries, and said it different and separate reports, fail-
ing to effect a compromise.
was under the impression that the
public panel had not aimed at a
scale for normal times, but one for
the drastic reduction of salaries, to
lighten provincial 1 and municipal
taxation.
SUGGESTED SCALE
The actual salaries recommended
by the teachers' panel Included the
fallowing :
Elementary Schools — Assistants,
male and female alike, from
minimum to $2,000 maximum in the
top scale, and $1,400 maximum in
the lowest scale. Annual Increment

school classes of superior schools to
receive $200 more than the ele-
mentary assistants' scale.
The teachers' panel applied the
four scales tentatively, and by way
of example, only as follows: Metro-
politan areas, including Vancouver.
North Vancouver, University Hill,
New Westminster. Victoria, and Oak
Bay, scale four or the highest scale.
Prince Rupert. West Vancouver.

naby, Trail, Rossland. and all cen-
tres where the average salary in
1929-30 was between $1,500 and
$1,800. scale three.
Scale two was suggested for
"most of the other small cities and
rural municipalities," where the
average salary in the same year
was below $1,500. Scales one and two
were outlined for other rural
schools. Teachers In outlying or
isolated schools with large numbers
of grades In a single class could be
provided with an advanced start on
the same schedules. It was set out.
starting at the second or third year
on the scale.
VARIABLE SCALE
The teachers' panel regretted not
being able to reach accord with the
public panel on the question of a
standard schedule of salaries, and
stated its representations were to
be applied as at normal times, with
an unstated reduction for the pres
ent and percentage Increases in
times of prosperity.
The teachers' representatives
stated they regarded a uniform

taining the possibility of reaching a

five diamonds, giving up hope o*
a slam, and risking, as he thought,
the possibility of the set of a single

correct bid was a strength-showing
bid of four diamonds, and was

strong probability of game at dia-

did. only three losing tricks played
at this declaration. However, there
were two things which he might
have considered. One was that when
holding a freak distribution, other

PUBLIC PANEL
The public panel recommended a
uniform schedule of standard sal-
aries throughout the province, with
alight variations where necessary to
meet special circumstances. Dif-
ferent rates of salaries and yearly
increments were recommended for
male and female teachers, under
the following conditions:
Assistants In elementary schools-
Men, minimum, $840; maximum,
$1,620; annual increment. $60.
Women, minimum, $750; maximum,
$1,300; Increment, $50.
Assistants in Junior high schools
—Men, minimum, $980; maximum,
$2,030; Increment. $70. Women, $900,
maximum, $1,620; Increment, $60.
Assistants in high schools— Men,
minimum, $1,190; maximum, $2,520;
Increment. $70. Women, minimum,
$1,080; maximum. $2,040; Increment,
$60.
Teachers in one-room schools
would receive $20 above these scales,
and the initial Increase would be-
come part of their minimum,
in two! Teachers in Junior high schools

equivalent would be rated one in-
crement lower throughout the rele-
vant scale. An asslsant In a su-
perior school teaching high school
subjects would be rated as a Junior
high school assistant. No incre-
ment would be sanctioned for the
purposes of grant for second year
of service of a teacher.
PRINCIPALS' SALARIES
Seven divisions, based on the
average attendance on the previous
year, would be created for the al-
location of salaries to principals,
who would receive the same annual
Increment as a vice -principal or an
assistant. Class one schools would
be those with attendances up to
seventy; Class two to 110 pupils;
Class three to 200; Class lour to
300; Class five to 400; Class six to
600; Class seven, all over 600.
The publla panel appended a
table showing maximum salaries for
principals and vice-principals in
elementary. Junior high and high
schools, for all seven grades of
schools, on the attendance
The maximum salary for
principals in the seven grades in
elementary schools would be $1,740
in Class One; $1,800 in Class Two;
$1,980 In Class Three; $2,160 in
Class Four; $2,340 In Class Five;
$2,520 in Class Six. and $2,700 in
Class Seven. In the corresponding
classes of schools, women princi-
pals would receive a maximum of
$1,400. $1,450, $1,600. $1,750, $1,900.
$2,050 and $2,200. respectively.
IN HIGH SCHOOLS
In Junior high schools the range
would be from $2,170 to $3,290 for
men principals, and from $1,740 to
$2,700 for women principals, In the
seven classes.
In high schools proper, men prin-
cipals would progress through the
seven grades of schools with maxi-
mum rates of $2,660. $2,730, $2,940,
$3,150. $3,360. $3,570 and $3,780, re-
spectively; while women principals
of high schools would receive their
top salaries at $2,160. $2,220, $2,400,
$2,580, $2,760 and $3,120. respectively.
Men vice-principals, occurring
only In the top four grades. Classes
Pour to Seven In the list, would re-
ceive between $1,740 and $1,290 in
the elementary schools; between
$2,170 and $2,380 In the Junior high
schools, and between $2,660 and
$2,870 In high schools.
Women vlce-prlnclpals would re-
ceive from $1,400 to $1,550; $1,740 to
$1,920. and $2,160 to $2,340 In the
corresponding positions. All the
above are maximum salaries, at-
tained after long service.
The public panel. In addition,
would allow $20 to $40 for one-room
schools, where enrollment exceeded
fifteen to twenty-five pupils. Simi-
larly small allowances would be
made to teachers teaching three or
more grades, and other allowances
where the cast of board and lodging
exceeded $40 a month.

Panel" as it styled Itself, was com-

Cabinet, sitting as Council of Pub-
lic Instruction.
COMMENT OFFERED
Provincial schedules for teachers'
salaries merely provide a basis on
which the Province may pay grants,
and would not be mandatory, the
public panel set out in Its
The effect of the
lng on the difference between the
two reports, the public panel states
"The two plans before the com-
mittee diverged considerably on im-
portant points, for Instance, the
total cost. Without going into de-
tails and qualifications, the annual
cost under the teachers' or em-
ployees' plan. In full operation,
would be about $6,500,000. No
teacher would suffer any further cut
In salary, and all below the maxi-
mum would soar upwards to salary
heights never before attained.
"The peoples' or employers' plan,
if generally adopted by the school
boards, would cost some $5,000,000
a year. Some teachers who have
been relatively underpaid would re
celve more money. There would be
a moderate reduction in the aggre-
gate of all salaries, corresponding
more or leas to the decline in the
cost of living."
FINANCIAL PROBLEM
"The cost of teachers' salaries is
about $5,700,000 a year. We are,
therefore, dealing with a financial
problem of the first magnitude. The
amount quoted Is based on the sal-
aries paid in June. 1931. The total
for the year ended June 30. 1931,
was $6,056,000. so there has been a
reduction of some $400,000 In the
year due to cuts in salaries. On the
June. 1932. basis, no less than $57.-
000.000 would be paid out in the
short space of ten years, without
allowing for Increase in the number
of teachers Teachers' salaries are
69 per cent of the cost of education
In the school districts Capital
charges make up a large part of
the remaining 31 per cent.
"Of the annual outlay about
$2,000,000 is paid by the city of Van-
couver alone. $2,100,000 by the fifty-
six other municipal school districts
and $1,300,000 by the 773 rural
school districts. Towards these
amounts the Province granted
$1,798,000 to the municipalities and
$1,084,000 to the rural districts. In
the latter the Province pays the
greater part of the salaries, but the
municipal taxpayer contributed
about $2,600,000 towards the $4-
400.000 payable In the municipali-
ties. The municipal taxpayer will
pay $3,000,000 or more for 1932," the
report of the public panel continues.
WOMEN TEACHERS
The employer and not the em-
ployee usually sets the salary, it fur-
ther comments The total number
of teachers employed Is 3,959. an In-
crease of eleven teachers for the
year. These Include 2.350 women
assistants in elementary schools
The average salary in the elemen-
tary school Is $1,270, and for high
school teachers, $2,170. according to
the report Both averages were a
decrease by $131 and $165 respec
tlvely. from the average In the year
previous. The average salary over
all teachers Is given as $1,430. with
considerable disparity between rural
and urban areas, the report states
Average salaries paid in Vancou-
ver schools are criticized as high by
the public panel. A reduction of 10
per cent from the former scale Is
classed as less than the drop In the
cost of living. According to the Do-
minion Labor Gazette, cited in the
report, the cost of living has de-
clined 20 per cent In the last two
years, the purchasing value of the
dollar rising. The Income of many
taxpayers has shrunk more than. 20
per cent. It notes, on the other side.
"The logical plan," the civic panel
continues, "appears to be to frame
schedules for the present, and let
the future take care of itself. Do
we require hypothetical scales for
halcyon days at some distant date
| In an uncertain future?" it asks in
reference to the teachers' panel
which had stated Us salaries were
based on "normal times." with
facility to raise or lower as condi-
tions warranted. Financial condi-
tions may yet stabilize on a lower
dollar rate than In 1929. the mu-
nicipal representatives finally as-
serted.
How the two scales compare with
each other in the same relative
school and grade may be seen from
the following tables, two extracted
from many given in the report.

ern Washington's insane convict
hunt moved into the third night
tonight without one of the hundred
or more searchers having unearthed
a single definite clue of the where-
abouts of the three fugitives.
The trio obtained razors, over-
powered attendants and fled from
the Eastern Washington State Hos-
pital at Medical Lake, and disap-
peared into the darkness of Thurs-
day night. Although none wore a
coat and all were wearing regular
institution khaki trousers, no one
reported seeing them after they left
the hospital grounds.
Authorities advanced theories the
men might have overpowered a
motorist and escaped out of the
district, or might have taken
charge of some rural home while
waiting for an opportunity to es-
cape.
Working on the latter theory, the
posses were divided Into small
groups today and a systematic plan
for | of visiting every household In the
district was started.
The three fugitives who were
transferred from the Washington
state penitentiary at Walla Walla
to the ward for the criminally In-
sane at the hospital are Leroy Race,

five, and Frank Gorman, thirty-
eight.

SILK SHIPMENTS FROM
JAPAN TO AMERICA ON
INCREASE THIS YEAR
The average monthly consumption
of sUk in America during the first
fovr months of the present silk
season, which started June 1.
amounted to 46.000 bales The con-
sum jit Ion of Japanese silk In the
United States for the past three
months amounted to 114.925 bales,
a gain of 11.498 bales over the pre-
vious year.
While silk continued to be de-
manded heavily in the United
States, the second largest line of
Japanese exports, cotton cloths, has
begun to lose Its market In India,
the heaviest customer, due to the

Says Gaelic Is Father
Of Irish and Scotch Wit
One Mi**** Thousand Laut;li> Annually if \* iilioul
Knowledge of Language in l^pe BrHon,
Says Lawyer-Journalist
GLACE BAY. N.S.. Nov. 13 —This
is another or those rambling Cape
Bretcn yarns from the pen of Stuart
McCawley, well-known lawyer and
Journalist:"-
"Did you have the Gaelic?"
John A. MacDougall says Adam
and Eve spoke it in the Garden ol
Eden; BUI Blackwood says "That's
why the Lord kicked them out."
If you are without Gaelic in Cape
Breton, you miss a thousand laughs
a year. Its words have more double
meaning than up-to-date flapper
slang, and its humor Is the father,
mother and uncle of all the wit of
he Scotch and Irish.
It's the language our best f smi-
les use at funerals and frolics.
The leading kirks have* a Oaellc
;crvice at least once a month.
And wc have slashings of Oaeltc
concerts and tucking-frolics and
tongs and story tellings.
Oaellc Is not a Mammon-wor-
shipping language; its lovers are
the most spiritual people in this
world. They have sincere respect
and love for God. and devoutly be-
lieve in all the old truths of the
Scriptures, and try to live up to
them.
ALWAYS HOSPITABLE
They are rough and ready, great
overs and the most hospitable folk
jn thi3 atom of the universe.
To appreciate a Gaelic story you
must know the language; It is as
hard to translate the fine touches of
Gaelic into English as it is to ren-
der Sappho's poetry into Jazz.
Up at Loch Lomond, on the hills
overlooking the Bras d'Or Lakes, the
McAskills live. Loch Lomond is one
of the most beautiful spots in the
world; virgin forest, trout lakes, roll-
ing land, the Grand River with Its
salmon, spruce clumps, hiding part-
ridge, wild deer in the hardwood,
and the people— big, husky, all
heart.
Most of the farms are deserted or
left to the old people. The boys are
Presbyterian preachers In Boston
and the girls trained nurses in the
big American centres.
Now at Jock McAskill s place Jock
and his sister are the only ones
home. Jock Is close on to eighty,
and Julia Is a year or two younger
Last year one of these bright col-
lege boys, trying to earn a dollar on
his holidays, drifted into McAskill's
taking orders for enlarged pictures.
Julia was home, and the student
gained her Interest in a very hand-
some gold-framed picture that he
offered to duplicate for $20. They
didn't have a picture of the old man.
and Julia was willing to spend the
money for one if Jock was willing;
so she called Jock in from the barn
to get his advice.
The student went through the
little sing-song again, and Jock was
willing. Then the dialogue started.
Student. "Have you a negative of
your father?"
Jock: "I want you to understand
the old man was a decent living
man; he was never naked."
"Oh. I don't mean any offence.
Have you a tin-type or any picture
of your father we could make a copy
from?"
Jock: "What In the devil would I
want to spend twenty dollars for a
picture of the old man If we had
one?"
The student couldn't Just "cotton"
Opening Giant Hydro-Electric Plant
A General View of the Exercises That Officially Opened the New Dnieprostroy Dam, World's Largest
Hydro-Electric Plant. Six American Engineers Were Rewarded by the Soviet for the Part They Played
in the Construction of the Huge Project.
If Jock was sincere, or Just playing
with him; so he asked Jock if he
would describe his father, and prom-
ised to get an artist to make a pic-
ture from the description.
Jock: "Well, the old man was a
big upstanding man about six foot
four with his boots off. His hair
curly and he had lots of it. He had
whiskers and long eyebrows and hair
In his ears. He had no whiskers on
his chin. He chewed tobacco a lot
and the drolls wore out the whiskers
under his lip. He wore a slmmet
mother knitted. It was grey with a
big hole under the left arm, where
the old man had a habit of scratch-
ing. His trousers were homespun.
His boots were high, with straps to
pull on, and he was a Presbyterian
and could lead in prayer."
SEEKS MORE INFORMATION
The student told Jock that he
could manage to make a picture if
Miss McAskll would go with him to
some of the neighbors and help get
more information about the old man.
So Jock went back to the meadow,
and didn't see the student again
until the Christmas holiday.
The future moderator of the Ca-
nadian Assembly had a beautiful
picture in a beautiful gold frame,
and Miss McAskill was delighted.
She removed the "Battle of the
Boyne" from over the fireplace in
the parlor, and with the assistance
of the student hung the old man in
Its place. Then they called in Jock
for his decision.
"It's a lovely frame. Them's the
old man's whiskers, all right. That's
his slmmett. You have the boots
with one strap gone. I forgot to tell
you about that strap. That's clever.
Yes. boy, it's a wonderful picture
entirely. But, Julia, dear, don't you
think the old man has changed a
hell-of-a-lot since he died?"
Selfish people are not selfish
enough to keep their troubles to
themselves.
Exiles May Soon
Return to Spain
MADRID. Nov. 12 (AP).— Mon-
archist exiles will soon be permitted
to return to Spain, Minister of In-
terior Santlag Casares told a dele-
gation of Rightists Deputies today
He said he expected shortly to
order the return of a few Monarch -
lit deportees and to allow the re-
mainder of the exiles to return to
the Mother Country on a schedule
based on their culpability in the
August revolt against the republic.
Senor Casares said he expected to
re-examine all cases of political
prisoners.

ASKS ADOPTION
OF NEW RULES
Contract Bridge Leader Pre-
dicts Further Changes by
Representative Body
NEW YORK. Nov. 12 (AP>e-
Widespread criticism of the new
rules for contract bridge prompted
a prediction today by George Reith.
that future changes would be made
by a representative body instead ol
the exclusive whist club.
He suggested, however, that those
who disapprove the new code would
do a public service by accepting
them for the time being at least.
Mr. Reith is chairman of the card
committee of the Knickerbocker
Club.
He is actively engaged in seeking
co-operation between the American
Bridge League and the United
States Bridge Association with a
view to regulation of championships
and future changes in rules.
NEW LAWK IMPROVEMENT
"While it is true." he said, "that
the code contains a number of Eng-
lish penalty ideas, such as the fre-
quent call for a new deal, which
are not likely to be popular here,
the new laws as a whole are a great
improvement upon the old one*,
and Include many principles which
have been developed since the old
code was Issued.
"It Is certain that the vast ma-
jority of clubs -and players will
adopt the new laws, and in order to
promote harmony and prevent eon
fusion, those who disapprove of de
tails will perform a public service
if they accept them for the time
being at least. Then, If tlley would
express their lndlvidualit.-. they may
become members of a national law-
making body now In process of for-
mation, and either directly or by
representation take part In future
revisions and modifications."

To Relieve Pain, Stick to
ASPIRIN
The public should be prudent in seeking relief
from pain. Take nothing which does not have
the approval of the medical profession.
Aspirin will never do you any harm, and almost
always brings the desired relief. But remember
that the high medical endorsement given Aspirin
does not apply to all tablets for relief of pain.
Doctors use Aspirin for these important reasons:
It has no injurious ingredients. It contains
nothing which can depress the heart. No coarse
particles to irritate throat or stomach. Nothing to
upset the system. Not even any disagreeable taste.
And to the absolute safety of Aspirin tablets,
add speed. Aspirin dissolves so rapidly that you
get the quickest relief from your headache, cold,
neuralgia, neuritis, or other pain.

NQ. 289 — SEVENTY-FOURTH YEAR
VICTORIA, KKITISH COLUMBIA, SUNDAY, N OVEMHER 13, 1932
St. George'. Hospital, Alert Bay, B.C.
By COLONEL H. T. GOODLAND, C.B., D.8.O.
WHILE a few people In Victoria and the
immediate neighborhood have known
of. and fully appreciate and support,
the noble work undertaken and performed by
the Columbia Coaat Mission, the vast majority,
those who have heard of It, give It a passing
thought only a* simply another mission
Yet. for over twenty-six years, the logging
camps, the fishing villages, the struggling
settler, the Oovernment lighthouse keeper, and
later the wireless stations, making up the white
population, have been practically dependent
for both medical, religious and social services
solely on the Mission Hospital Boat. This boat,
since May. 1905. has plied her way through
lair and foul weather, Winter and Summer,
hometlmes day and night, through the treach-
erous channels and uncharted passages of the
many Inlets on the Mainland; from Queen
Charlotte to Howe Sounds and from Camp-
bell River to Cape Scott, at the extreme
northerly tip of Vancouver Island, back and
forth from Mainland to Island; touching at
all the Islands, big and small, bringing cheer
and goodwill, and medical services, to all and
sundry, from the "Big Boss" (the resident
of the large saw mills) and his
to the lonely fisherman In his boat,
to the latest Indian baby in the
swarming Indian villages that are scattered
up and down the Coast.
Prom the Inception of the mission, the
founder, Rev. John Antle. had, and still has.
the welfare of the Indian at heart, and the
Indian Department of the Government think
very highly of him and his work. His first,
and practically only, quarrel with the De-
partment took place early In the mission. He
cleared the logging camps of Indian women,
naturally to the Indignation of the loggers,
who resented this so-called Interference.
Against some opposition from the chief In-
spector, he cleaned up the camps and they
are clean today. They say that some of the
morning scenes In these camps were terrible,
the braves beating up their women, who tried
to hold out on the money. The old chiefs

The Mission Team
THE fine points of all games are only seen
by the onlookers from the side lines,
and this mission game is a fine one. The
principal players are intent on their particular
job and do not perhaps see the result of their
team work. The captain of the Columbia (not
the original twenty horsepower gas boat of
1B08, but the 100-foot, ninety horsepower
Diesel -engined, well found Columbia of today),
Captain E. A. Oodfrey, a Vancouver boy. son
of a pioneer banker; Doctor P. Herschel
Stringer, son of the present Archbishop of
Ruperts Land, born on Herschel Island during
the Archbishop s early missionary days, hence
his Christian name; the engineer. Cecil Piti-
gerald. from Campbell River; the padre. Rev.
Gilbert Thompson, from Ontario, and that
very necessary man, the cook -steward. Ron
Shuker. from Vancouver, replacing 'Tony." a
faithful Japanese, who served on the Columbia
for many years and died In harness. They
tell me "Tony" learned to do everything about
the ship, even to run the engines in an emer-
gency.
Alert Bay. the home station of the Columbia.
Is a picturesque village of one street, fringing
the Half Moon Bay on Cormorant Island.
It Is most curious street; the Indian Indus-
trial School, a fine modern brick structure,
housing some 350 children, standing In its
farm lands with barn and outbuildings, at the
extreme northern end of the bay; then some
Indian houses, very untidy; the English Church
vicarage and church, very well built, bright
with blue paint trimmings and with beautiful
stained -glass windows; some more small
houses, the Indian Agent's villa residence;
and a row of Indian houses, all shapes and
slses. Then comes a skeleton structure made of
gigantic logs, roofless and sldeless, more like
••Stonehenge" than anything else. This was
the old Indian council chamber and adorning
It are many fantastic totem poles and images,
birds and animals. Then comes the cannery
and deep water wharf, at which passing
steamers tie up. The postofflce and store are
built on the wharf on piles. There are some
Government buildings. Provincial Police office,
telegraph office, customs office and more
dwellings, to the St. Oeorge Hospital, a very
fine building, splendidly equipped. Dr. J. L.
Anderson Is In charge, with a staff of three
nurses. After this the Indian cemetery, which
Is one mass of totems, birds In extravagant
colors, and then two hotels, a row of stores,
some kept by Chinese and Japanese, and con-
taining surprisingly large stocks, and the
street peters away after another half mile or
so of houses, landing at a farm, altogether
about a mile and a half of street.
A machine shop Is built on a scow and floats,
and a long Jetty Is occupied by oil tanks, for
refueling the fishing boats. The bay Is full
of craft: the seine boats, the trolling boats,
a couple of hydro planes, very red and yellow
and operated by the Fisheries Departmen|;
police boats, forestry boats, and scores W
Indian small craft. Altogether quite a busy
and Interesting place. They even have three
motor cars there and one. owned by a Chinese
store, dashes up and down the street, which Is
sometimes plank, gravel, sand or ordinary mud.
and very narrow.
It was from here that Mr. Raymond Jones
and myself, two members of the Victoria com-
mittee of the Columbia Coast Medical Mission,
Joined the boat, to accompany it on its regular
cruise, to learn first-hand how things were
done and to see for ourselves the various
places she visited. Sailing was delayed until
the following morning, as our doctor had to as-
sist in an important operation In the hospital,
so the remainder of the Sunday was spent In
exploring Alert Bay, visiting the Indian In-
dustrial School, and meeting practically all the
white population. We were entertained by the
English Church clergyman, Rev. Mr. Prosser.
and his wife, who has been here over three
years, and attended his service In the church.
The totem poles were duly Inspected also. It
was not much good asking any of the Indians,
who were lounging about, what they meant, as
each would give a different story. Tiiey
probably get a great deal of fun out of ana- rer-
lng the tourists' questions about their totem
and It Is very Improbable that any v hlte-
i really knows what they mean— as will ask
a Freemason what his
boat. Is Is well fitted and Is
used as a church, lounge and
cinema; they have piled a hundred people Into
this room on occasions and always at Christ-
mas, when the Columbia turns herself Into a
"show boat."
The first night's rest was broken by horrible
sounds from the float culminating in pro-
digious splashing, while the padre's little dog
went crazy with excitement. This din was
started by a cougar, which had chased a deer
down from the mountain, forcing it into the
water.
At dawn we sailed for the mouth of the
Kingcome Inlet, calling at De Marr's Camp
and Levlgness' float, where we delivered a
patient from the hospital. He was returning
to work after recovering from a logging acci-
dent. Calling at Charles Creek Cannery, in
ruins from a fire, we found an Indian fishing
camp. A bigger boat was buying and collecting
salmon from the Indians; they gave us a fish
and refused payment. In the inlet at the
mouth of the Kingcome River, up which the
Columbia could not go, we tied up to a float.
We launched one of the boats equipped with
an outboard motor and ran some three miles
without any expression on their faces; whilst
the totems also gazed woodenly at the sound
of Christian hymns being sung by the descend-
ants of the men who carved them. The doctor
having finished his visits, the return trip was
begun and our party was due at Halllday's
farm for dinner.
Looking from the windows of this hospitable
modern farm house, it was hard to reconcile Its
presence In this land of solitude and moun-
tains. Fruit trees bearing heavy crops and a
large kitchen garden full of vegetables of all
sorts, looking remarkably healthy, hay fields
and meadows filled with cattle. This Is the
only farm of any size for hundreds of miles,
and supplies milk, butter and vegetables of all
sorts to the many settlers who live within a
radius of forty or fifty miles and who come In
boats— there Is no other way to travel. There
is a school here, but In every settlement we
visited where there Is no school, one heard
much of the education by correspondence
courses, operated by the Education Department
of the province, and It appears to be highly
successful and efficient. Across the river was
another family, the Lansdownes, very happy
and contented. One of the daughters is at-

calls to be made. We sailed through SutleJ
Channel to Highlands Camp. Cartwrlght Bay
to Mackenzie Sound. Here Mr. Reynolds has
his float. He Is an experienced fisherman and
logger and operates his own steam boat. His
contribution to the Columbia was smoked
salmon of his own curing. That morning the
partial eclipse of the sun was plainly seen in
a cloudless sky. Another sight In one of the
channels was unique In these days: two
enormous whales were disporting themselves
and leaping completely out of the water. They
had been there for some weeks people said,
and one at least was seventy-five feet In
length. We passed the some spot, returning
later, and they repeated their performance
for our benefit; we passed .them only a few
yards away, and enjoyed a very rare sight.
O'Brien Bay was called at and out by way of
Wells Pass, up Labouchere 8tralts, stopping
at Point Aylmer, then Into the open sea. set-
ting a course for Cape Scott, at the extreme
northern end of Vancouver Island, with
Triangle Island In the distance and nothing
beyond but Japan. Here was our first ex-
perience of heavy water and the ocean swell
soon made Itself felt. Our objective was Pine
Island and our only chance of making a land-
ing depended on the state of the sea. which
our captain decided, was calm. His passengers
differed however. In this respect, and
of the distraction of landing.

This Is a Typical Floating Village of the British
Many Floating Homes
EARLY the next morning we sailed, and
crossed Broughton Straits to Blackfish
8ound Into Heath Lagoon. Here the first
floating home was called at, Macintoshes. We
were to see nothing but these floating homes
for some time. The first wa a small one of
one dwelling only, a cook h'^use and some sheds
and workshops, but composed, as were all the
others, of floating logs Joined together with
wire ropes. This raft of logs Is moored to the
shore. TTie logs are at least four feet In
diameter and anything up to 100 feet long
and are planked over near the houses. The
rafts all have flower gardens, rough boxes of
earth, some were old Indian dugouts filled with
earth Mr. Macintosh Is a logger, as are all the
dwellers of these rafts, up and down the Coast.
After the doctor had made his visit and
the padre had exchanged the books borrowed
on the last visit from his library on the boat.
Echo Bay was visited Here is a Urge raft
containing several houses and families.
Children were running about the logs. From
here a small boy with a broken arm and his
mother and father were taken back to Alert
Bay to the hospital, as It was necessary to
have the member X-rayed and d/essed. We
returned the family later In the day to Echo
Bay and started for Wakeman 8ound. where
we tied up for the night at a deserted float.
The hospital ward on the Columbia Is a
bright, airy room on the main deck, situated
at the back of the wheelhouse. and contains
two beds, as well as the dispensary and opera t-

In the Kingcome District
TIE mouth of the Kingcome River Is a
delta, with several channels, and the river
proper Is navigable for launches for over
seventy miles. The mountains are very high
ana some were snow-capped even in August.
The alluvial soil on the banks of the river
seemed immensely rich and were It near civili-
zation would be very valuable An Immense,
crudely carved, human figure, with arms ele-
vated, presumably of great age. was observed
at the mouth of the river, seemingly guarding
the entrance Possibly this was a landmark.
Kingcome Village was interesting in the ex-
treme, very dirty and smelly, with swarms of
children and dogs, also mosquitoes. A number
of most grotesque totem poles and figures
adorned the village street 8ome of the dwel-
lings were fairly good, others merely shocks.
The principal citizen seemed to be one Billy
Sunday, who lived In a very creditable dwelling
at the far end of the village. Near this was
the mission building, at the moment un-
occupied, as the missionaries were away on
their well-deserved holiday. Two devoted
white women, the Misses Solomon and Adams,
have run this mission for years and live here
in the village among the Indians; consequently
It Is one of the healthiest and most civilized

A Call of Mercy
LADEN with vegetables, eggs and butter,
our boat rejoined the Columbia and put
about for Simoon 8ound. calling at the
Simoon postofflce, kept by one, Dunselth. This
was a most picturesque floating village and
there was a store there. Here we were ad-
vised of a call for assistance from the opposite
shore, where an Englishman was living on a
raft and his child was sick Darkness was
falling and we had to make Greenway Sound
that evening, but first the call had to be made.
A typical case this; the man trying to eke
out a precarious existence at fishing and
hand logging— there Is nothing else to do—
and evidently not cut out for this kind of work.
The doctor clambered off and attended to the
child, leaving medicines and some comforts,
whilst the padre supplied the usual books,
which are a literal godsend to these people.
And then the Columbia had to navigate her
way to Oreenway Sound in the dark by dead
reckoning and the aid of her old log book
covering the course. So many minutes on this
course from one headland looming up in the
dark, then another course for more minutes
to another point, unseen by a landsman's eye.
until the lights from Scott's camp appeared
and our whistle brought out more lights to
welcome us. for this was the Columbia* day
to arrive, and we were late.
A regular floating settlement this, and the
whole ship's company went ashore, or rather
afloat, as the houses were all on floating logs
as usual. Several families here and all
arrived to constitute a party with music, games
and. of course, supper. Daylight revealed this
camp moored against a steep cliff In a beauti-
ful bay. while the logs waiting tn

Visiting a Lighthouse
RRIVING off the lighthouse, on this
lonely island, we lay too. and awaited
the boat, which we could see putting off to us,
being lowered down the cliff by a wire rope
and traveling pulley Into a little cleft In the
rocks— the only possible landing place on the
whole Island. The manner In which the light-
house keeper's wife handled this boat was
simply wonderful and we rowed ashore, land-
ing one at a time on slippery seaweedy rocks,
under orders of Mrs. Pyke. who was watching
the waves and kept away from the rocks until
a favorable lull occurred.
This visit to the Island was a delight. Tame
deer were everywhere, after, we had climbed
to the top, and rabbits were sitting around
practically on the doorstep of the
Hons were basking and swimming
low us on the rocks making queer
the view from the top of the lighthouse
something to remember. We saw the fog horn
and light machinery, and were very impressed
at the extraordinary cleanliness and tidiness
of everything.
One felt that there in that lonely place the
spirit of the British navy was exemplified In
the Canadian Lighthouse service, and It made
one feel very proud to see such efficiency. This
light is a very important one. as It guides the
shipping from the North Into the
water between Vancouver Island and
Mainland. The keeper. Mr. Pyke. told us that
he had to operate the fog horn for nineteen
days continuously during August. His engines
got hot, and he had used up more oil than
usual, so he was running short. We took with
us his requisition for more oil, as this was the
first chance he had had of reporting to his
department in Victoria We were given

was reluctantly refused, as we caught sight
of a pair of reproachful eyes In the face of
the keeper's small boy, who was spending his
holidays on the island. The tide was rising,
and so was the sea. and we had to hurry away.
Oettlng into the dancing boat from the slip-
pery rocks was harder than landing, but It
was safely done, and we reached the Columbia,
lying to a quarter of a mile away, and
ling aboard, watched the keeper's
a very clever but perilous landing.
The sea was beginning to break now and
we made all speed towards the Mainland
again, reaching Allison Harbor. In the
of Seymour Inlet, where we tied up at
for the night The booming of the sea
side was very audible all night The
ment fishing warden, who was also the post-
r. Capt Woodford, came aboard.

Picturesque Bull Harbor
XVfE loft tne Mainland Coast for a time,
W and after a few more calls reached
Southgates, where we found Mr. Bellamy's
fishing camp, where the doctor was busy again,
and then we faced the open sea once more—
this time very rough indeed. We passed Pine
Island lighthouse again, and It would have
been Impossible to land there that day.
Through Bates Pass we reached Hope Island
and called at Nahwlttl Indian village, where
the doctor went ashore In an Indian canoe.
In the bottom of which was a dead deer. The
Indian replied to a question as to when he
shot that, "Tonight."
Through Ooletas Channel to Bull Harbor,
a most picturesque sheltered Inlet, with a
winding entrance. The "Bull" is a sort of
"Siwaah Rock." and at one angle, with tree
branches representing horns, exactly resembles
a bull moose. The wireless operators at the
station there have Intensified the resemblance
by painting eyes and nose. The harbor was
full of small craft and we went aboard the
fish warden's boat, on which he and Mrs.
Paterson live. Mr. Paterson. Is an old Yukoner
and served In the navy during the war. and
Mrs. Paterson Is a New Zealander. and was a
nurse at Oalllpoll. We visited the wireless
station, which Is very pleasantly situated. The
wireless masts are two taU trees, with a higher
mast spliced to them The station relays all
messages from the North and speaks to all
ships. A hundred yards from the wireless
station Is the eastern shore of Hope Island, and
there the waves from the open sea roll In with
great force and beauty, a marked comparison
to the lagoon-llke beach so close.
The doctor having finished his visits and
the padre his, Shushartle was the next call.
Here was an old fish cannery, In ruins, and
a small village and postofflce. Hardy Bay and
Port Hardy were next: there the remains of
a boom town, while across the bay the ruins
of Hardy Bay village were seen, deserted and
forlorn. The Oovernment wharf is a very
good one and a road * tarts from It through
the one street of the town and through the
virgin forest across Vancouver Island to Coal
Harbor, on Quatslno Sound on the West Coast.
A motor car runs to and fro dally. Whilst the
doctor and padre were busy, this road was ex-
plored for a little. One was especially struck
with the new varieties of ferns lining the
banks The soil seemed very rich.
The next call was at Fort Rupert, a most
picturesque place, and there stood the old
Hudson s Bay Company trading post, dating
many years back The ruins of the bastion
are still visible, but the solid stone chimney of
the fort stands like a monument. Near this
was an old cannon, dated 1837. and many old
cannon balls. The place Is now entirely an
Indian village, complete with Its totems and
communal houses. The best feature now Is
the fine heath, with Its sloping grassy banks.
Poultney Point light is called at. Just at llght-
lng-up time, and the keeper. Maiaonvllle. who
answers to the name of 8horty to everyone In
those waters, came off In his boat to change

to bring down logs to the lake. One could
have spent a week here, as the fish were
plentiful and no one fished. Back a

A Surprising Community
SAILING early we touched again at Alert
Bay on the way to the Finn village of
Sointula, on Malcolm Island. A bright- faced
girl caught our line as we reached the wharf,
evidently waiting for the Columbia, for this
was her day to calL This aettlement was an-
other surprise. We saw well-kept, well-
painted houses, clean and tidy, and many
were tillftl farms; certainly the moat pros-
perous looking farming country we have seen.
Port McNeill was next, where the doctor and
padre went ashore. Here we saw the wreck
of a large motor cargo boat, beached from
nearby rocks where she went ashore. Her
cargo of salmon from the North had been
Jettisoned and one heard of splendid fishing
for salmon, already tinned and cased, having
been indulged in.
The weather had turned wet and stormy and
we returned to Alert Bay to lie up till the
next day.
The police reported news of a sick man
floating helplessly about In a fishing boat.
Indians reported this to them, but it looked
like a hospital Job, so they passed It on to us,
and we sailed out into the storm and dark-
ness to try and find the boat There was
danger of running on the rocks of the little
bays we were searching, so we were forced to
return and start again at dawn. We found the
boat, still afloat, and an old man In an un-
conscious state. With difficulty he was taken
aboard the Columbia. He seemed to be nearly
done and we carried him to the hospital at
Alert Bay with all haste. This was the second
case of the kind we encountered. The other
fisherman had evidently had an explosion of
his engine and was badly burned. He had
crawled into his bunk and died, and had been
his boat In at the same moment we arrived
in port. They took the body to the hospital
and handed it over to the mission. A lonely
life this fishing.
We were late on our schedule and made all
speed southward in the main shipping channel,
through Johnston Straits to Salmon River, or
Kelsey Bay as it Is sometimes called. The
wharf there displays a big sign marked "Say-
wards." There was considerable settlement In
that district and no less than four motor
were, at the wharf waiting for the
boat to call on its way from the North to
Vancouver. There our padre went ashore to
make pastoral visits In the community of some
days, and we saw him no more.
We sailed southwards, and were hailed by a
boat and asked to call in the next bay for a
sick woman. We stopped opposite a lonely
cattn In a little bay and a woman, the wile of
one of the settlers, was brought to us. She
wanted to go to the hospital; we took her
aboard and later arrived at Rock Bay, home of
8t. Michael's Hospital of the Columbia Coast
Mission, In charge of Dr David Ryall and his
nurse. Our patient was taken ashore and the
two doctors attended her. She was operated
on within the hour — Just in time we were
told. A pleasant place this, and the hospital
very well appointed. When the Jogging be-
gins again it will be full of patients, but today
there are only two or three. What a haven of
rest and comfort for those sick people. »fter
suffering In silence and misery In their lonely
to find themselves bale and with the
edical care and attention. No wonder
the mission of the Columbia and all it stands
for is held in the highest esteem by those
lonely people.
Off again at dawn, and we directed our
coarse for the Mainland, via Mayne Passage
and Blind Channel, and were soon In a maze
of passages and channels around the many
islands. This was a heavy day and our calls
could not be protracted. We passed Thurlow
Island, Grassy Bay to Grey s Creek, proceeded
up Longhorn Inlet, making several calls, each
one warmly welcomed as usual. McCauley's
was touched, and then Beaver Creek. Here
and there were many booms In the water, wait-
ing for the tug. testifying to some activity.
Then we passed Philips Arm to Shoal Bay or
Cadero Channel, where there are visible traces
at a past gold boom some years ago.
Thurston Bay was a very pretty place, and
there we visited the Government Forestry
Station on Sonora Island. Nogales Channel
a wonderful trip through
Yuculta Rapids brought us to Stuart Island,
our Journey's end for the day.
Fine Sport Fishing
E had made so many calls and the day
had been full of Interest. We tied up
at Mr. Harry Maurln's float and went ashore
to visit his home, which. In comparison to the
floating camps, was a palace. Set In a lovely
garden with emerald green lawns and fruit
trees loaded with fruit. The evening was per-
fect and about sundown we went with Mr.
Maurln in his boat to try for a fish, for thU
Is one of the finest fishing spots in British
Columbia. There were several boats out that
evening, and each one took a fish or two. Our
turn came and a fish was hooked, a thiny-
t wo- pounder that came flopping and fighting
over the side, and very nearly flopped out
again before It could be killed. Mr. Maurin's
visitors' book showed the names of many well-
known and distinguished people, und par-
ticularly Interesting were the remarks and
sketches and photos of several celebrated
movie stars from Hollywood who visit Stuart
Island regularly in their yacht.
Our last day on board the Columbia came
with the dawn and we returned down the
rapids into Colin Sound and Lewis Channel,
passing the east coast of Cortez Island, and
later the very neat and tidy Catholic mission
at Squirrel Cove; out Into the open channel
passing Savory Island and Lund on the Main-
land, to Powell River, where we landed to see
the paper mill and town. Then to the end of
our cruise on the Columbia to the newest of
the three mission hospitals. St. Mary's, at
Pender Harbor, in charge of Dr. G. M. Klrk-
patrick.
There we disembarked and said farewell to
the ship's company; Captain Godfrey, from
whom we learnt some of the rudiments of
navigation in the wheelhouse, and much
geography of the Coast of this Island and the
Mainland; the cheery Dr. Stringer, who will
go far In his profession; the engineer. Cecil
Fitzgerald, whose pleasant voice we shall miss,
as he croons as he nurses his engines and
speaks over our radio to the operator of the
wireless station at Alert Bay, reporting our
position several times daily, and receiving
messages of calls to be made; and the steward,
Ron Shuker, who looked after our needs so
well. Not one moment of our ten days' cruise
was dull and it was with real regret that we
waved good-bye to the sturdy little ship as she
sailed out into the sunset again, on her way
back northwards to continue her work of
bringing help, comfort and good cheer to those
lonely souls whose needs were real and urgent.
The Fall Is here and the Winter gales at
hand. Nothing matters to the Columbia as
regards weather. She completes her circular
tour each month. The bays, channels and
Inlets, so beautiful in the Summer months,
with the green timber covering the mountains,
from the shore line to summit, scored here
and there by slides that have sheared the
mountain sides to the bare rocks; precipitous
cliffs will be wreathed in fog and mist and
will be snow. All this merely betokens the
coming of Christmas If the Columbia is
welcome at all other seasons, she is trebly so
at Christmas. Laden with gifts for every-
one, big and small, she makes her calls, and
all pile aboard down into the cabin, where
the big Christmas tree stands a blaze of light.
The children are dumb with sheer ecstasy.
Brings Christmas to Many
A SHORT, bright Christmas service, some
hymns, the cinema flickers, the gifts are
bestowed, and the Christmas ship is off again
to the next place. The gifts given are not all
new and bright from the stores; most of them
for the children have been Christmas gifts be-
fore, and have been rescued from the attic
and have found their way to the Columbia
Coast Mission office in Vancouver. In the
Province Building, and from there to the Co-
lumbia in time for Christmas. For the elder
people there are clothes, gloves and other use-
ful things. Fashions hold no place In this
part of Canada, and discarded feminine nick-
nacks, on this account, find full value in the
eyes of their latest proprietors. Last Christ-
mas the Columbia traveled nearly 1,000 miles
in her Christmas calls and called at over
thirty places, where there could be a com-
munity assembled, and also landed some
twenty-five Christmas trees.
A few figures., and this story Is ended. In
1931, the Columbia traveled, on her errands of
mercy, over 21,000 miles. She also answered
fourteen SOS. calls for help, covering 1,300
miles in doing so. Medical and surgical cases
numbered 1.112. The Columbia's engines do
not run on air. but they require fuel o.l. and
oil costs money. What the cost of operating
the Columbia is. does not matter here, except
that operating costs are cut to the limit But
the annual cost of operating the whole of tin-
Columbia Coast Mission, including the "Ren-
devous" mission boat, which under the devoted
charge of Rev. Allan Green, covers the ter-
ritory south of Rock Bay to Campbell R\\,<
and the adjacent islands, with headquarters
at Quathlaski Cove; the Fredna, with another
chaplain, covering generally Jervls Inlet anf
also used as a relief boat; St. George s Hosplta.,
at Alert Bay; St. Michaels Hospital, at Rock
Bay; and 8t. Marys Hospital, at Pender Har-
bor; all with their modern equipment, elec-
tric lighting, water supply, private wards, dis-
pensaries and at least two X-ray installations,
is some $64.000— not a large amount when one
realizes what it covers.
Of course, people pay for their hospital serv-
ices and other medical attention, when they
can. and they mostly cannot these days with
fishing returns appallingly poor and the saw-
mills closing down for want of business. The
unpaid hospital fees have accumulated and
represent a large figure— it will remain a
figure. One could Imagine the treasurer's Joy
if someone would give him a cheque for this
balance.
The Government, as with all hospitals, gives
a grant of so much a day. as does the Indian
Department for Indian patients. In 1931 there
were 9.572 "hospital days'* comprising 3.664
cases. The Vancouver Community Chest
grants all it can afford, which in 1931 was
$13,500, making the total earnings some $61,000.
and in spite of this there was a deficit, not
large, but unfortunately it has to be added
into the deficits of former years.
The Columbia Coast Mission carries on in
spite of everything, keeping its head up. ab-
solutely refusing to be cast down by adversity,
and sailing as close to the wind as It possibly
can, displaying the same spirit that It always
has shown from its Inception in 1905. it will
be nothing short of a tragedy If failing income
causes the Columbia to be withdrawn from its
noble work, and it is inconceivable that this
will ever come to pass.
"If Winter comes, can Spring be far be-
hind?"
Friend of Prospector, Miner and Financier ^
By FRANK E. WOODS IDE
Manager, B. C. Chamber of Mines
IN the early days of tills province when
mining activity centred around the Koot-
enay country, the city of Spokane served
as distributing point for both money and ma-
terials for the mines. Prospectors, financiers
and men with goods to sell all congregated in
that city to transact their business and
Spokane became known as the "mining town"
of that day. Later, when attention to the min-
ing world moved northward to the Yukon
goldflelds, Seattle obtained all the business,
and It was to that city that the miners went
with their gold to build homes and settle
down. It has often been remarked that the
Yukon gold rush "made the town of Seattle."
It was not many years later that a local
group of enterprising citizens realized the Im-
portance of all this development and decided
to capture for British Columbia the business
which was duly here. To achieve this objec-
tive an organization now known as the Brit-
ish Columbia Chamber of Mines came Into
being. An active- board of directors was
chosen to represent every phase of the ln-
dustry—a practical miner, a mining engineer,
a geologist, an assayer, a mining instructor, a
wholesale merchant, a banker, a financier, an
Industrial specialist, a lawyer, a nonmetalllcs
expert, and a transportation man, with a
manager and staff to look after actual oper-
tlon of the office. It was realized that this or-
ganization must be a live one, alert to take
advantage of every opportunity to promote
the welfare of the mining Industry and all
those connected with It.
As time went on the services being rendered
by the Chamber of Mines became more valued
to the public and the scope of Its work In-
creased tenfold. Branch organizations were
later formed in various parts of the province
to foster mining development In the Interior.
Financial support for the Chamber of Mines
is chiefly provided by the City Council and
business firms in Vancouver, together with a
membership list made up of numerous min-
ing companies and. individual prospectors. No
grant was received from the Provincial Gov-
ernment during the present year.
Show-Window of Mining
THE Chamber of Mines has become known
as the show-window of the mining in-
dustry in British Columbia. Present quarters
are located in the B. C. Mining Building, 402
Pender Street West, where a well-arranged
showroom exhibits a representative collection
of British Columbia's mineral wealth.
Samples of ore from nearly every mine in
British Columbia are viewed daily by large
numbers of people who come from all parts of
the world. It has been estimated that since
the beginning of 1932 no less than 12,000 peo-
ple have called for information. Prospectors
bring in specimens of their rock from new
discoveries for comparison and classification.
This display has indirectly caused the invest-
ment of large amounts of foreign capital in
British Columbia's mines.
As a bureau for the dissemination of reli-
able information on the mining industry in
British Columbia, the Chamber of Mines pro-
vides an invaluable service for all Inquirers.
With a first -class library comprised of both
Provincial and Dominion Government reports,
technical Journals on modern mining prac-
tice, and a complete hie of data on the min-
erals themselves, an answer can be found to
every mining problem. A set of reference
maps and file on operating companies have
proven of real value. Provincial Government
mining reports are available for distribution
to serve all inquiries.
Is Connecting Link
ONE of the most important functions of
the Chamber of Mln?s is that it forms a
connecting link between the prospector and
financier. When a prospector is successful in
locating a promising mineral deposit, he is
Invited to fill in a standard form, describing
the merits of his ground and to file it at the
Chamber's office, where a list of properties
for sale Is open to public inspection. In this
way many legitimate mining operations have
been established. The prospector is looked
upon as the very essence of mining In this
province and every possible assistance is given
him free of charge. During the Winter
these hardy men spend their tirrH
mining reports and geological surveys, so as to
prepare themselves for an active programme
in the Spring and Summer months.
Mining classes are sponsored throughout the
Winter to Instruct prospectors In mineralogy,
geology, mining and assaying. These classes
have proven particularly beneficial to young
men who are anxious to earn their living In
the hills, but who cannot afford the expense
of a university course. An average attendance
r
^TVI BSS3
of 100 students has been recorded each year.
By this means a new crop of highly efficient
prospectors is growing up to take the place of
those who are steadily passing away. A series
of free lectures is also held under the direc-
tion of the Chamber of Mines to stimulate
public interest In mining. Important topics
relative to the industry are spoken on every
Friday night, starting in January and con-
tinuing for a period of several months. All
lectures are well attended, as they have met
with hearty response from every part of the
province.
Aid to Prospectors
AT the beginning of Spring of this year
prevailing unemployment conditions
turned many men to prospecting for gold as
a means of livelihood. The majority of these
men were without any previous experience in
the methods of placer mining, but were deter-
mined that "it was better to work for one
dollar a day In the hills than be idle in the
cities and earn nothing at all." Upon the
strength of recommendations made by the
Chamber of Mines, the Provincial Govern-
ment issued a provisional miner's licence
free of charge to prospectors who had been
resident in British Columbia for a period of
six months. This licence entitled them to
stake one placer claim and record it with the
Government without cost. Such arrangement
has proven of great advantage to many men
with limited capital who could not have af-
forded to hold ground under previous regula-
tions. *
Hundreds of Inquiries were received every
week by the Chamber of Mines for informa-
tion on the most promising areas, methods of
working and equipment necessary, while
numerous other questions were also asked.
To expedite movement of these men to the
gold-bearing districts, and to Insure a maxi-
mum chance of success, every possible bit of
advice and assistance was offered by the
Chamber's staff. They were given every en-
couragement, but the necessity of an adequate
grub-stake was particularly stressed. It was
pointed out that .prospecting, to be successful,
must be taken up seriously as in any other
business, not In a haphazard fashion that
could only end in shortcoming, disappoint-
ment and failure. In a large number of in-
stances the novice was put in touch with the
man with past experience, thereby improving
his chances for success.
Reports coming In to date have been quite
satisfactory from the standpoint of gold pro-
duced. Some of the men who went out have
expressed their intention of sticking it
throughout the Winter, as In certain parts of
the province it is more profitable to work the
gravels in the Fall when water is low. Others
have built themselves cabins in sections where
it is possible to earn their sustenance by trap-
ping and where they can live more cheaply
than if they came to the city.
All indications are that next year will wit-
ness a season of continued Intensive pros-
pecting. The Chamber of Mines is well pre-
pared to give advice to all those
and invites free usage of its
available to the public.
Lohar, Chief of the Cowichans
ft
AMON08T my collection of old Indian
photographs, I have one of a Cowlchan
chief. In uniform, with a medal pinned
on his coat, and holding In both hands a
crucifix. The inscription beneath this picture
reads, "Lohar. Chief of the Comeaken band,
wearing a medal presented to him by the Oov-
ernor-General for special services."
This Chief Lohar was not only chief of the
Comeaken band of Indians, but the big chief-
head of the Cowlchan tribe— when the first
white men settled in the Cowlchan Valley.
For many months I had been hoping to learn
something of the chief and of the "special
services" for which he had been decorated; but
it was not until quite recently that opportunity
offered, and early one morning I set out in a
cold and drizzling rain to drive to Comeaken
to visit Chief Lohar's daughter. 8tockl-Whut.
or Kathleen, as she is more generally known.
Not even the mist and rain could dim the
golden glory of the maples that lined the
roadsides, and scarlet-leaved branches of dog-
wood gleamed in vivid contrast amongst the
more sombre hued firs and cedars as we drove
the twelve or more miles to Comeaken.
Stockl-Whut's home stands on a small,
grassy knoll, overshadowed by the little stone
church, built by the late Rev. Father Ron-
deault as a place of worship for the Indians
and early settler*.
As we walked to the door numbers of cats
scattered before us, and hungry- looking dogs
barked a welcome. Stockl-Whut opened the
door to us. and. when she had learned the
reason of my visit, shook hands warmly and
invited us In.
Such a room! Quite large and very high—
for It had no celling and every imaginable
object hung from the rafters and from clothes
lines which were strung across the room at
Intervals. There were two beds, one on the
floor and a white enameled one In a corner,
and at one end a table piled high with dirty
dishes and remnants of food. The entire
place seemed to be hung about with clothes of
every size and color. In the centre of the
room stood a small heatsr. or rather the re-
mains of one. for the pile of
peared to be all that was holding It together.
However, it was burning cheerily and we
were glad of the warmth after the cold drive.
The usual family portraits, enlarged and In
gorgeous frames, without which no Indian's
home would be complete, were hanging round
the walls, and amongst them I saw the dupli-
cate of the small picture I carried with me.
This appeared to be the first time Stockl-
Whut had been asked for the history of her
father, and she was more than delighted to
tell all she knew about him.
Friend of White Men
NEVER have I heard a more dramatic
story-teller, nor seen a more expressive
countenance than hers. At one moment
fierce, with eyes sparkling and arms akimbo, a
regular Amazon; the next, her lips trembling,
eyes filled with tears of supplication, which
soon disappeared, as. head held high, a look
of pride on her still handsome face, she told
of the presentation of the medal to her fathar
by a "big Tyee!"
"My Pappa Lohar was always very friendly
to fhe white men." she told us. "He wanted
them to come and live in our land, and he
liked the priests and always tried to help
them; they were good friends.
"Well, you know that Indian reserve you
drive through Just outside Duncan, the one by
the Cowlchan River? Well, that Is the
Somenos Reserve.- (The district of 8omenoa,
although several miles distant, was named
after this tribe). "Well, long ago. an Indian
of the Somenos people killed a white man. and
of course there was a lot of trouble and a
of-war was sent up to Cowlchan
of soldiers to find the murderer.
-The captain of the man-of-war
talked to my father, and said to him. 'Some
of your people are hiding that bad man If
you don't give him up I will take my big guns
and will blow up all your villages.'
"Now Lohar knew where thr.t Somenos man
was hiding, and as h* did not want all his
people's hcur-s to be b-okon, and wanted to
a, mm - « - - ^ *
went to the place where that bad man was to
be found.
" Come out!' he called to him. 'Don't be
afraid; it is your friend and chief, Lohar.'
"The man came out from his hiding place,
holding his musket behind his back with one
hand.
" We are friends.' said Lohar. and held out
his hand. The Somenos man took the hand
held out to him, and. quickly. Lohar pulled
him closer, and reaching round behind him,
caught the musket and took it from him.
Now he shouted to other men who had gone
with him. and they ran up and took the
Somenos man and tied him so that he could
not get away. Later on, the white men took
him. put a black cloth over his he^ad, a rope
around his neck and hanged htm. Up where
the English church now stands they hanged
him.
"Now the Indians saw that it would not do
to harm the white men; that If they did so.
they would be punished, and for soon
there was no trouble.
Trouble Over Reserves
f < A. Tow tne government began to mark
out land for the Indians to live on.
to be called their 'reserves,' and three men
came here to mark the lands. This made the
chiefs of the different tribes very angry, and
they talked together and made plans to kill
all the white people. My Pappa Lohar heard
rf this plan and he got very angry. He called
all the chiefs of the tribes and talked to them,
telling them that they must not touch the
white men; that if they did so. the soldiers
would come and would blow up all the houses
and kill everyone. All day he talked to them,
and at last they saw as he did. and said they
would leave the white men In peace and
would do them no harm.
"In time the good Queen across the water
heard how my pappa had saved her men and
had b??n good friends with all the white peo-
ple and she sent him a present with a mes-
sage on It by her 'big Tyee'" 'The Marquis
"And this is how the Queens present was
given to my pappa."
8tockl-Whut smoothed her skirt, cleared her
throat in an impressive manner, and drew
herself up proudly. She had arrived at the
mast Important part of her narrative.
"One day there was a big time at Cowlchan
Bay. Many Indians came In their canoes
from all parts, and the big ships came from
Victoria, and then; was racing In boats and
canoes, and swimming. Oh, a big time! By
and by a message was sent to Chief Lohar
and all the Tyee Indians, and they all went
on the man-of-war. There they found all the
big men from Victoria were on the ship, and
there before them all a big Tyee white man
pinned the good Queen s present Uhe medal)
on my pappa s coat. Just as you see it in that
picture!"
O the pride In 8tockl-Whuf.s voice as she
held herself very erect and described that
presentation!
8he pointed to the picture dimly seen
through many coats of grime.
"There he is." she said. 'There Is my
pappa. Chief Lohar. Just as he looked that
day they gave him the present. „
"Ah! he was proud of that medal. On one
side there was the good Queen's picture and
on the other the message sent him. telling
how good he had been to the white people."
Programme of "Big Time"
I HAVE had the good fortune to be shown
one of the original programmes of this
"big time" at Cowlchan Bay. It reads in
part:
"Indtan Jubilee Sports at Cowlchan Bay on
the 28th June. 1887. Indians of the Coast
tribes are cordially invited to attend and com-
pete In the sports, consisting of foot, boat and
canoe races. By the kindness of Admiral Sir
M. Culme-Seymow and Captain Oxtey. H M S
Conquest will be present to assist."
"Ah. yes." said Stockl-Whut. "Lohar did all
the priests asked him. At one time he had
only one wife, and they had two little boys.
Then I was born. After that he tcok another
wife, but one day the priest came to
said. "Lohar. how many wives have you?'
Lohar said that he had two klootchmen.
"That will not do,' said the priest. 'You
must send one away.' So Lohar kept my
mother, for she had two boys, and he sent
away the other woman, for she only had three
girls. After that Lohar and my mother
walked up to the stone church and the priest
married them."
"What happened to your fathers medal?" I
asked.
"It's lost." replied Stockl-Whut in a tragic
voice. "I will tell you about It."
She drew her chair nearer the crazy stove,
disturbing several sleeping cats as she did so.
"Now when my pappa died." she began. "I
was Just twenty years old, and not married
yet. Well, Lohar left a paper 'a will), telling
the priests to bury his medal with him, but
when I married his grave was to be dug up
and the medal taken from his coffin and
given to me. 8o the priests burled him with
his medal pinned on him.
"About two years after that I got married to
Johnnie Tshos-o-Lok, and one day we went to
my pappa's grave with the priests and Mr.
Lomas. the Indian agent, and the head men
of the tribe, and the coffin was opened and the
medal taken out and given to me.
"Ah! I was proud to have that medal and
t" be able to show It to people and tell them
what a fine man Chief Lohar had been. For
a little time I had it then." Stockl-Whuts
voice shook and her eyes filled with tears.

"I went to Indian policeman Tom about it
and I told the Indian agent, too. 'Catch thai
man!' I said. 'Catch him and make him givs
me back that medal!' But 8chos-o-Lok was a
relation of Policeman Tom, and he and th«
agent talked to me like this:
"'Wait,' they told me; 'wait until the dancei
begin, then watch for your husband. If hi
wears his dancing mask, then we will know
that it was he who went into your home, and
that he must have the medal and we will go
after him.' "
Stockl-Whut shook her head sadly. "Ol
course I went to all the dances, and that man
r/as there, too. but never did he wear hU
dancing mask, and so nothing was ever done
to get my medal back for me."
"Do you think he still has it?" I asked.
"Now now." she said. "I know he did nave
it; that woman of his told one of my friends
that he had got It. but his house has burned
down three times and I am afraid he has lost

THE DAILY COLONIST. VICTORIA. R.C. SUNDAY, NQVEMBER 13, 1932
BRONC FIGHTER'S GIRL
P
V
OLLY Collin* sat on a corral fence In
Lu Cruces looking at the rodeo stock.
Her soft silver-dust hair, setting off
her deep olive tan. always made the riders
highly aware of her. But Just now she was
happy— not blithely, but tremulously and un-
certainly; and the new, gentle, entirely wist-
ful radiance this gave her transformed her into
something very lovely, so that they thought
they must have forgotten what a honey she
was. In the year that she had been away.
Polly herself could hardly believe It was
really a year since she had last come out of
these same saddling chutes raking a contest
bucker. with the roar of the crowd in her
ears. Just now. on the eve of tomorrow's rodeo
opening, the big grand stand was empty, and
the arena was a deserted twenty acres; but
around the cattle pens and the horse corrals
was gathered a high-spirited bunch of thirty
or forty people who would contest tomorrow—
bronc men, bulldoggers. crack ropers.
Polly had come to Las Cruces on a last
moment s Impulse, and partly against her will.
But now that she no longer concealed from
herself why she had come, every remembered
voice took on a new meaning, and became
peculiarly stirring.
She knew that Lee Macklln was somewhere
here. Presently he would seek her out. as
inevitably as dust settles to dust. And then
the long, unhappy emptiness of the year in
which they had been separated would be ended
—perhaps. For now she was ready to admit
that the barrier which she had raised between
them was a foolish and trivial thing compared
to her need for him and his need for her.
A year ago, when she had finally turned
back Lee Macklin's headlong love-making, she
had had a stubborn belief in the fairness of
her side of their quarrel. That belief was
none now, lost somewhere in the dreary vacan-
ties oi ine emp'.y year.
r,ponslble for that new and
ness.
- Lee Macklln, completely reckless, utterly
carefree, living strictly in the moment, always
gave the effect of having the world by the tall
and making the world like It. He was a lean,
long-legged, blue-eyed humorist; his loose, lazy
half-swagger concealed the muscular cordlngs
of the rough-string horseman. You could
hardly think of Lee Macklln separated from
broncs. Leather and dust, and broncs and
cows; those things had set the pace of his
life.
These were things Polly Collins had tried to
forget. Now. with the smells and sights and
noises which represented Lee all around her.
ahe knew completely, once for all, that the
effort had been a foredoomed folly.
A hoarse whoop went up Immediately below
her and big old "Rowdy Kate" Hutchinson
hauled Polly off the fence to half crush her
In an enthusiastic embrace. Old Rowdy Kate
was the nearest thing to a mother most of the
rodeo girls had. When Kate's own riding days
had ended she had stayed In touch with the
rodeo game by marrying Jake Hutchinson,
owner of bronc strings; and no rodeo seemed
the real thing without Rowdy Kate's familiar
whoop.
"GJory be, child! I thought you'd lost your-
self! You Just got in, huh? I didn't see your
name checked in at, the hotel. Say— know
where you're going to sleep?"
"I don't. Kate. Las Cruces Is sure full up."
"Uh-huh. Well— I was splitting a room with
Rose Moran. but she run out on me. So I
guess that fixes you up. Don't thank me!
Spleasure! Seen Lee Macklln yet?"
"Well, no, Kate."
"That's funny. 8tUl. of course, you Just
now got In. You all set to do them gals out
' of first money?"
"I'm not even going to ride."
"Well, child. It's all right with me; there
ain't many of your age has twisted as many
cayuses as you have. How old are yuo, honey?
« Going on twenty-two? Uh-huh. And how
many first moneys did I heard you had— ten
in three years, was it? I'd give something to
know why you quit the game!"
• •» "I don't know, Kate. It looked to me for
a while there as If bronc fighting was Just a
racket for wasting good cow folks. The boys
'that start In are the rrcam of the crop; then
pretty soon they slip, and get punk — and
they're all through."
"Like Lee Macklln." said Kate, looking at
her.
"Polly Collin's eyes were dreaming. If she
had been looking at Kate, perhaps she would
have got more out of that last remark. But
she nodded. "The cream of the crop."
Rowdy Kate grunted. "Well, I'll say one
thing for him— he ain't so much as looked at
another girl since you gave him the gate."
"Kate," said Polly, "are you— you wouldn't
tell me that If It wasn't so?"
Rowdy Kate studied her. "Oh, that much
of It's O.K. Well, say, most likely he'd come
over here and answer the rest of the questions
himself, If I d flog out of the picture."
Polly said in a weak voice, "Kate. Is he-is
he here?"
"Heck, don't you even know him when you
. see him? He's right over there talking to
Jake."
Polly Collins turned and followed Kate's
* K glance. And the year which she had let slip
out of their Uvea turned on her and ;<mk ita
revenge cruelly. You could hardly say. first
off. Just how Lee Macklln had changed. He
was still mil and lean and careless looking;
, and though he had not shaved that day, that
was true of half the cowboys there. Some
might not even have seen the difference In
him at first. But Polly saw instantly, In that
first glance, and her breath held still.
Something was missing, so that the whole
picture of the man'had a different meaning.
She had looked for a swaggering youngster
who had the world by the tail, and. Instead,
ahe saw a man who was tired, unhopeful and
—licked.
She turned to where Rowdy Kate had stood.
"Kate I That Isn't—"
Then Lee Macklln turned and caught her
rye: he hesitated, then came across the corral
to her slowly, not swaggering, but with a sort
of hitch in his walk that might have been
the ghost of his swagger.
"Hello. Polly."
4 She heard herself answer. ' Hello. Lee." snd
her voice sounded even and natural. But she
felt faint and dizzy This was not Lee Mack-r

bronc fighter. Short hoss. soon curried.
That's the average bronc rider, all right. And
that's Lee Macklln."
"But how— how could—"
"Well, while you was away from things, Lee
went down here to Tucson and got himself
bucked down by a new hoss. name of Black
Powder; and that was about' all from him. He
hasn't amounted to a hoot since."
"Do you mean— he was smashed up and
can't—"
Kate's voice rose in an end of patience.
"I mean he went yellow, that's what I mean!"
PoHy Collins' eyes blazed. "I don't believe
It! Lee never quit In his life — he couldn't
quit, he doesn't know how— not If they killed
him"
"Don't take my word for It, honey. Take a
look!"
"I will take a look!"
"All right, honey, all right." Kate stood up
and stretched. "They'll be drawing for their
bosses pretty soon here. You feel good enough
to come see them draw?"
Polly snapped to her feet. "You bet your
life I'm coming to see them draw. And I'm
praying to heaven that Lee Macklin gets a
good tough horse. If he does, you'll sec him
make fools of them all!"
At Las Cruces the rodeo runs three days;
the bronc men draw for their qualifying horses
at midnight, on the eve of the first day. Polly
Collins had taken part In such midnight draw-
ings over and over again; but not even the
first drawing she had ever made had seemed
more Important to her than this drawing to-
night, as she waited to see what horse would
fall to Lee Macklln.
The forty or fifty crack contest hands
lounged about the big room In disorderly
bunches. Polly Collins glanced over them. She
located Lee Macklin, standing against the wall,
talking to Bob Kennedy. After that she pre-
vented herself from looking at him again.
Jake Hutchinson, his big seamed face
genially ugly, got up to sit sideways on the
edge of a table and shout at the buckaroos:
"Hey, listen, you bronc fighters! The Mata-
gorda* buckskin If off the contest list. Some
of you seen him kill Dutch Iverson here last
year. Matagordas ain't been In a chute since.
But there's twenty-five bucks extra for any-
body that wants to ride him for a special
exhibition!"
For a moment a touch of cool chill took
Polly Collins' mind away from the reason she
was there. Dutch Iverson had turned and
grinned at her Just before Matagorda* had
bawled and come out. beginning Iversons last
ride. The buckskin was a killer, a tromper;
It had been a terrible thing to see Dutch die.
8he forgot that, though, as the drawing
began. By twos and threes the bronc twisters
slouched up to Jake Hutchinson's table to draw
from the hat. Polly waited.
Because he had entered late. Lee Macklln
drew almost the last of all; but he strolled
forward at last. For a moment or two, when
Lee had drawn, there was a confused muddle
around Jake's table, so that Polly called out
to Jake. "Is that a private drawing? Sing out,
wlU you?"
"Lee Macklin draws Black Powder!"
A fierce thrill momentarily possessed Polly
Collins. It was Black Powder that had

"Uh-huh— I know. Poor child! Don't stand

"I suppofc — I'll always love him."
"Well, he was certainly nuts about you.
Hew come you to get split up so?"
"I don't know. Kate. I— I wanted him to
quit bronc riding; I didn't see any future In it."
"And he allowed he'd decide them things
himself?"
"It kind of yeemed that way. But I think
now— Kate, I think he would have quite the
contests in a second, knowing the way I felt."
"Then why didn't he?"
"I didn't understand it then. But I think
now that he Just felt that that was a com-
mercial kind of thing for me to be specifying.
I know that he would have wanted me, even
If I insisted on spending my life as— as a sheep
shearer. And I think It kind of hurt him that
I didn't seem to feel the same way about him.
And then I got stubborn."
"Well. It s too bad. But he's sure proved you
was right." ,
"But to see him fold up and quit—"
"Well, It's over with now. There Is nothing
you can do and you might as well — "
"No. it Isn't over with. .1 can snap him out

"And how," said Kate cynically, "is this
to be done?"
"I'll show you how It's to be done!" I'll do
it, and you'll help me, Kate. I'm going to ride
Black Powder!"
Kate stared at her. "Who, you? You can't
ride Black Powder!"
"Kate, you're going to fix it— for tomorrow,
as a special exhibition. You run Jake and
Jake runs the broncs. Don"t tell me you
can't fix it!"
Rowdy Kate looked flabbergasted. "And
what if I could? You think I want you killed?
This Isn't the old Powder. This is the new
black, right in his first prime, an' boy, he
.smashes em down!"
Polly's eyes burned with a dogged fire. "What
if I'm bucked down? I've been bucked down
more times than there are stickers In a salt
bush. But I tell you. if I come out of the
chute on Black Powder, that bronc Is going
to get the raking over of his life."
Rowdy Kate sat for a long time staring at
Polly Collins. At last she said gently. "Child,
maybe It might be done. Maybe there's things

a quick die In any shape than go on as he

thing else. You realize that If you do this to
him he'll liate you for It— hate you till the
hour he dies?"
"Kate." Polly said. "It s the least I can do
for him— maybe all In the world I ever can
do for him."
"And make him hate—"
"I know." Polly Interrupted.
"And what." said Kate softly. "II I won t
Play?" .
Polly Collins seized both Kates arms.
"You've got to! You've got to fix it!"
Suddenly the tears flooded Polly's eyes and
ran down her cheeks; and she hid her face.
Kate gathered her Into her arms.
'"Sail right, honey. Its murder, maybe.
But Ml fix it up."
POLLY Collins spent a long night, and an
even longer morning. She arrived at the
rodeo arena only at the last moment; and
having arrived, managed as well as she could
to stay apart and alone She was hoping

"Polly," he said, "I Just got out from town,
didn't realize until Just now that you some-
how fixed It to ride this Black Powder. Polly,
you can t ride that horse!"
She said almost lnaudibly, "Arc you telling
me what I can and can't ride?"
"Look here, Polly, I know that brute. I've
been on him!"
"And off him!"
• "And off him." Lee nodded. "I never rode
a horse that's got the plain, hard power that
he has— and I've rode them all."
She said oddly, "You used to ride them all."
He didn't notice. "Black Powder's been
ridden, and he'll be ridden again. Montana
Bill rode him, before Black Powder ever saw
a rodeo. But Montana Bill can't sit a horse
at a common wolf -trot today— and never will
again."
She said hotly, "If you think that's the sort
of thing I go by — "
He interrupted her. "I know you can ride:
but a woman Isn't built for a smashing like
that. There's lots of good tough men that
aren't built to ride that horse and come out
sound."
"And there's others—" there was a tremor
In her voice, but her eyes were full of sparks—
"There's others wouldn't stay It through to
lind out If they could."
He stared at her. "You mean— why, look
here — you mean — "
"You know what I mean. I think." she said.
A bitter smile twisted her mouth.
"I— I thought you at least knew me well
enough so—" he began.
She turned and broke away, unable to meet
his eyes any longer; and headed for the chutes
almost at a run.
She went off and found a secluded spot
among some bales of hay. where Bob
nedy finally found her. His moon face
tough and dogged.
"You've as good as murdered this boy— you
hear me?"
"Murdered who?"
"You know who! If Lee rides Matagorda*—"
"Wait a minute! If who rides who?"
"Lee has took them up on that special ride
proposition. The announcers pretty near
crazy over the whoopee he's going to make
about It. 'Cowboy will attempt to avenge his
old pal by riding out the horse that last year
killed Dutch—*"
A queer, mixed emotion swept through Polly
Collins. The death of Dutch Iverson was an
enduring nightmare, and she despised the
everlasting showmanship which seized upon
his death for exploitation. But there was still
a deep, sure thrill to the news that Lee Mack-
lln was coming back to ride, unafraid to tackle
anything that bucked.
But Bob Kennedy was rushing ahead: "I
promised Lee to keep my trap shut. But you
run him into this, and you got to haul him
back out of It. If he rides—"
"Sure he'll ride!" she was suddenly exultant
"I know I drove him into It! And I know
he'll hate me for It. But I'm glad!"
Bob Kennedy stared at her.
"You don't know what you're saying," ht
by the shoulders, shook her once, and glared
Into her face. "Lee— he's hurt. He's hurt

|OLLY Collins tried to steady herself and
think it out. The Judges, she knew,
wouldn't take time now to call a physical exam
on the demand of some wild-eyed girl. She
had to go to
The loud-speakers were calling: "Chute
Number One— Lee Macklin coming out on—"
Polly Jumped like a quirted colt. Across
the hay bales she could see the heavy barriers
of the chutes, cowbody clustered along the
top rails. The Yuma Kid was straddling
chute number one. She saw the heave of his
back as he Jerked upward, tightening the buck-
ing strap. Hi, arms flipped up to signal
• Ready,'' and he climbed out of the way.
The lean, careless figure of Lee Macklln
swung over the gate slowly, eased into the
saddle. She heard the resounding crack of
hoofs on wood as Matagordas let drive at the
chute walls with his forefeet.
Polly Collins ran for the chutes.
"Lee! Hold up!"
Nobody seemed to hear her. She sprang
up the side of the chute.
"Hold that gate! Lee—"
The gate was swinging; It opened slowly, as
things move in a slow-motion movie. Mata-
gordas seemed to stand, as broncs sometimes
do, not aware that the wall is gone. No— he
was leaning, rolling out of the chute, gathering
for that first whirling Jump. He swayed off
balance for the Jump— still slowly, all in slow
motion. Polly reached out and tried to catch
hold of Lee s shoulder, but her own hand was
hi slow motion, too.
Lee Macklin's face turned toward her, ex-
pressionless except for a faint surprise. She
caught the quick flash of his grin. Then Mat-
agordas Jumped.
Watching that ride was like nothing Polly

And the
horrible effect of slow motion went on, so
that she could mUs no gather and release of
the muscles of the fighting buckskin horse, no
least movement of the man In the saddle.
The Matagordas horse could fight He was
a horse that knew no tricks nor twists. He was
a horse like Black Powder, letting go a blind,
equalling explosion of nerves and a thousand
pounds of hard horseflesh at the Job of put-
ting the rider down by sheer smash of Impact.
Lee Macklm was riding as hardly anybody
but Lee ever could ride. That awful effect
of slow motion that was upon Polly made plain
the flex and play of muscle, the beautiful swing
of balance, the accurate swift placement of
spurs. Lee Macklin rode with muscles loose
and free. In an Incredible unity with the ex-
plosive battling of the horse. And he was
scratching, scratching on every Jump. He
could have ridden tight and saved himself,
maybe, at least given himself a chance; but
he rode as he always rode, free-swinging and
reckless, his spurs raking from neck to flank.
Dutch Iverson had been killed on the
ground; but Polly knew that before Dutch left
the saddle he had been blind and dazed, per-
haps knocked out altogether. And now she
knew the exact moment when the lights went
out for Lee Macklln. As surely as if she had
been In the saddle herself, she sensed by hLs
slack, dull swing the instant that the ride
was ended, for all Lee Macklln knew. But
somehow Lee still rode; skillful muscles still
lighting by habit In the dark.
The pickup men were answering the whistle
at last. Bob Kennedy, who always rode pick-
up for Lee. was coming up on Motagordas with
the fastest pony he had been able to borryw
He got an arm about the rider and hauled
him bodily out of the saddle. He pulled up
his horse and lowered Lee to the ground as
he swung down. Macklln lay quiet In the
dust.
Polly Collins swung a leg over the chute bans,
she was starting to run across the field to Lee
Macklin. Then the strength went out of her.
What little could be done, there were plenty
of others to do, a hundred ready hands at
Lee's service, now. The one thing that only
she could have done was past and over with
She had been the only one in the world whose
Job It was .to stop that ride; and she had
missed out.
If
'P in the hospital, the room where they
liad Lee Macklln was cool and shadowy,
very quiet. Polly was happy, for Lee knew
her now.
They were going to operate on him, but it
was going to be all right. Maybe he would
never ride again; but even so, the quiet and
the reassurance were like Spring coming on,
after what they had had before that. Lee
had raved deliriously for an hour— before they
even found out what he was raving about. He
had been obsessed with the Idea that Polly
was about to ride Black Powder! She had for-
gotten about Black Powder.
After that, they had let her In. and Lee had
come around all right. And now she sat br-
side him. and he held both her hands In one
of his. They didn't talk much; Lee was sup-
posed to keep his mouth shut.
Only, he finally said. "I don't care whether
you like It or not. But somebody has to stick
around and keep an eye on you. Seems like
nobody has been taking care of that since you
turned me out on the free range. You got
no more notion of taking care of yourself than
a new colt. From here out I aim to stand by
and ride circle on you; and I aim to keep it
up until you get somebody that suits you
better to take my place."
Polly marveled; he might have taken the
words right out of her mouth, so accurately
they fitted the thought that waa running In
her head. How was It that he couldn't see
he was the crazy, reckless one, whom someone
had to ride circle on? He had no more notion
of how to take care of hlmsalf than a— but
those were his words.
"Whether you like It or not." he said again,
doggedly.
She bent her head, and pressed her cheek
against his hand.

Next door was a second-hand bookshop, with
a trestle of old tattered volumes outside. The
horse bent down his noble head as If scanning
them, and sniffing them with his sensitive nos-
trils, he tore out a few pages to taste their
flavor— perhaps he remembered Bacon's saying,
"some books are to be tasted." He was then

two priests, catching sight of him with evident
delight, called out gaily to him. Even the
bookseller, emerging Just then from the in-

volumes, patted his nose, and laughed along
with the other spectators. It was the first

shown an Interest In literature.

for some of them because they knew the pro-
prietress of the shop for an unusually hard
and mean woman, who. being engaged with
customers inside, knew nothing of what was
going on, till at last she emerged with a
scream, to be greeted by roars of laughter, as
the affrighted animal made off with a par-

Influence of one man that Czechoslovakia

pendence. That man Is the President of
Czechoslovakia, Thomas Masaryk
Son of a Peasant
HAT tort of a boy was he who grew up
to be so great a man? He was the son
i t a Slovak peasant, employed as a coachman
( n the Austrian Imperial estates. As a boy.
Joseph Masaryk, the father, never went to

Thomas was born at a village called HoJonin
in March 7, 1850. The family of lather,
mother and four children was very poor, and
what was harder to bear than poverty, the
husband and father was treated almost as a
sjave by his employers. This troubled the
mother, and she resolved that her children
.•hould be rent to school and have a chance to
mak$ their own way in the world.
Shs spoke German as well as Czech, and
taught that language o her children. She
was a devout Catholic, and her children
learned from her the prayers and to take part
In the services of the church. Before he went
to school, little Thomas begged the schoolmas-
ter for bits of pencil and scraps of paper, scrib-
bling away as many little folks do in our own
hemes.
He went to school as soon as he was old
enough, but he and his playmates spent much
Of their time in the fields and woods.
Childish Pastimes
NO sooner had the snow melted than ihoes
and stockings were thrown aside and
the children ran barefooted over the green sod.
After the grain was sown they followed the
procession as the priest and choir marched
round the fields .singing hymns and praying
for a blessing on the crops.
When the grapes were ripe the school chil-
dren went with cups to the vineyards, where
wide was being made, and asked from each
owner a cup of the fresh grape Juice for the
master. This was poured into a jar and set
to ferment beside the schoolroom stove. In
the Autumn the little boys, with their bows
i'nd arrows, made up hunting parties. A little
afraid, most of them were, for they had heard
many wierd tales of witches and evil spirits
tnat haunted woods and other lonely places.
In Moravia, as in other Christian lands,
Christmas brought gifts and beautiful services
in the churches. When he was ten. Thomas
wes server to the priest In the church at
Cejokovlce and sang In the choir, which made
both him and his mother very happy.
Easter, too. was marked for the children by
songs and processions through the villages, by
gifts of eggs, as well as by hymns and services
in the church.
Grammar School
THOMAS had grown to be a big, strong boy.
He had learned all the village master
< ould teach htm and was reading books of hLs
own. Among these was a history or Bohemia
and Hungary and an old atlas. He had done
so well at school that an inspector advised
his parents to make him a teacher. The poor
people were only too willing, but how were they
to support four hungry growing children In
the meantime. But at ten a boy could earn
but little, and the mother resolved to keep
Thomas at school a while yet. But no one in
their position could send a lad to a high school
without permission from the authorities. This
was granted, though unwillingly. It would be
much better to make the boy a laborer, like his
lather, or to teach him a trade, it was thought.
It was decided to send Thomas to a school
at Hustopec, where his aunt lived. She would
take the boy into her home, and sent one of
her own children to live with his parents. The
school was taught by Piarist Fathers.
When young Masaryk appeared dressed in a
homemade suit from his father's coachmans
uniform, his schoolfellows laughed at first.
But the lad held his own. The teaching was
in Oerman. He had to learn many of the les-
by heart. His Industry, intelligence and
pleased his teachers, one of whom
his friend. Among the subjects taught
was the elements of mechanics, and the lad was
delighted to learn the why and wherefore of
the common thlfga he had obstived. He
might, he thought, become an engineer.
The Jewish Boy
IT was while at this school that Masaryk
learned a lesson he never forgot. The pu-
pils had gone on an excursion among the neigh-
boring hills. It U very hard for anyone
brought up In British Columbia to understand
why Jew* should be feared and hated and de-
spised as they are In many places in Eastern
Europe. But all his life Thomas Masaryk had
avoided the Jews. He would not willingly pass,
much leas enter, a Jewish house. However,
there was among the pupils a Jewish boy. In
the midst of such fun a« only young boys can
enjoy, the Jewish lad slipped away Masaryk
noticed him and stole after him to see what he
was doing. The lad was kneeling and praying.
the religion which would fill a boy's heart with
•urn devotion. Other boys had come upon
the scene and would have tormented the Jew,
but Masaryk bade them leave his alone. It
was not the last time that Thomas Masaryk
that Justice be done to
But the happy schooldays at Hustopec came
to an end. Thomas was In his fourteenth
year and must go to work to support himself
and help at home. He had always admired the
strength and skill of the smith who had
worked for the farmers at the various villages
In which he had lived. A tradesman In Vienna
wanted an apprentice and Thomas was inden-
tured. It turned out. however, that his mas-
ter's business was only making iron heelplates
for shoes. At first the boy thought this great
fun. All he had to do was a pick up a piece of
Iron, place It In a machine, pull a lever, and
out fell a completed heelplate.
Vienna Is a very beautiful city to the rich
resident or traveler. But the country boy soon
wearied of its fine streets and grand buildings.
He hated the monotony of bis work. HLs mis-
chievous fellow-apprentices stole his treasured
books. After six weeks he ran away and found
his way home. His people had no* moved to
Ceje, and the father, not wishing to lose sight
or the boy again, asked hi* friend the black-
smith of the estate to undertake his training.
There was no lack of work here. Not only
were there horses to shoe, but carts, ploughs,
harrows and all kinds of farming implements
to make and to mend. In Summer all hands
were at work from two or three in the morning
till late at night. Thomas, however, liked hLs
mactc.- and his work, and showed long after-
wards that he had gained uncommon skill.
That he did not finish his apprenticeship was
no rault or his.
One day, as he was carrying water to the
lorge, he met a stranger, who stopped to talk
to him. Thomas knew him at once. It was
the music master at the grammar school where
he had been so happy. Ashamed or his black
race and dirty hands, the lad threw down his
buckets and ran.
When he, at length, returned to hLs home,
Thomas learned that arrangements had been
made for him to return to his childhoods
home at Cejokovlce. The boy of thirteen was
to become a pupil teacher in a school at that
place taught by the father of his former music
master. There he was glad to meet again his
old friend. Father Francis. The boy Ceacher
received no salary, but the priest took care that
he earned small sums by playing the organ and
ringing at funerals.
Learning Latin
THE boy who could speak Czech and Oer-
man made a sad bungle or the Latin used
in the runeral service. He persuaded Father
Francis to teach him to pronounce the words
properly and to tell him their meaning. From
an old dictionary, he learned other words and
phrases. When in a castle near the boy round
some very old books written in Oerman and
containing Latin quotations, he was able to
understand them.
He stayed at the school lor two years, teach-
ing as best he could and losing no chance or
learning whether rrom books or masters. When
he was fifteen, young Masaryk took the exami-
nation for the German High School at Bru. the
capital or Moravia. Berore he left the town
ot Cejokovlce Thomas got a great fright. He
had told some of his pupils as he had learned
at Hustopec that the "earth moved round the
sun." The children told the news to their
mothers, who were horrified. They went to the
priest, who had much trouble in pacirying
them. A rew days arter there was a ratr In
the town, and a lot or big rarmers came to the
fchool asking ror Masaryk. The boy. thou-
oughly frightened but determined to prove the
truth or his statement, went to meet them.
The men, however, were not so ignorant as
their wives. They told Thomas that his teach-
ing was quite satisfactory, and. instead of the
beating he expected, each of them gave him a
small piece or money.
We must leave him here, an almost penniless
lad going to a strange town to support himseir
as best he could while he studied.
Thomas Masaryk was one ol these rare peo-

The Diary of a Dollar Bill The African Karroo
MONDAY— Early this morning I suddenly
heard the key turn In the lock of my cold,
hard prison, and felt very happy. For my master
was evidently going to take me with him on a
journey. He rolled me up tightly, and put me
in a deep trouser pocket and I soon felt myself
moving. In a short time we arrived at the
station, and there we boarded a train. No
sooner were we seated than a whistle blew and
the train moved slowly away from the station.
Hurrah! I had started on my travels. But my
happiness was short-lived, for I remained in
the same position all day.
Tuesday— Today my master took me out of
his pocket and gave me to a funny-looking
"black-' man in exchange for some luscious
fiult. The black man gave me a friendly
look as though he liked me. and— oh, horrors!
he, too. put me in his pocket.
Wednesday— Some absent - minded person
gave my new owner too much money for fruit,
so my master very honestly gave me to this
dreamy old gentleman to "make all fair and
square." as he said. This new man put mc in
a black leather container (which I now know
is a purse) and threw it, with me in it, on his
bed. However, 1 was not to remain there long,
for during my master s absence that evening,
a very quiet person stole cautiously into the
roonw He spotted the purse, opened it and
pulled me out. But he treated me very
cruelly, for he squashed the breath out of me,
and then crammed me Into his pocket, to-
gether with a large Jackknife and a corkscrew.
I felt terribly humiliated to be in such com-
pany, and longed to get out.
Thursday— Fortunately for me, my master
had a hole In his pocket through which -I
slipped at the first opportunity. But my con-
dition then was the worst of all, for I had
fallen on the floor, and was tramped upon by
everyone. After a few hours of this dreadful
agony, a small boy spotted me, picked me up,
and squeezed mc in a friendly fashion. That
night he told his mother about me, and they
decided to keep me until Saturday, when
Bobby (that was the little boy's name) would
take me to the bank and add me to his small
savings. For the present, however, I was put
in a large "roomy" box. and carefully placed on
Bobby's dresser.
Friday— I lay there all day Friday, but
when
Saturday morning came. Bobby took me and
valke« down town to the bank. He gave me
to the teller, who was a kind-hearted man. I
was then locked up in a large vault.
Sunday— I awoke this morning feeling very
happy and peaceful, for I had accomplished
my desire— I had seen the world. But the best
part was that I was once more back in my real
home, and to me that Is the best place of all.

IT Ls time Canadian children were learning
more about the lands in which our cousins
In other parts of the British Empire live.
Here ls a description, written some time ago,
of the African Karroo in My Magazine:
"There are some parts of the earth," says
the writer, "that would be richly productive
were It not that the soil there cannot get a
sufficiency of water to enable It to support
the vegetable life of which It ls capable, ex-
cept for a few weeks of every year, after Its
slender supply of water has come and gone.
Such districts are the Karroos of the Cape
Province of the South African Union.
"By most of us the Karroos are thought of
as dry and barren wastes lying between the
strip of fertile South Africa coast lands and
the great lofty plateau which forms by far the
greater part of British South Africa.
"Karroo is the African native's name for
a dry place, and during a large part of the
year the Karroo region ls parched into what
seems like sterility. But when rain does fall
It brings an astonishing change for a few
weeks, and the wonder is where all the pos-
sibilities of flowers and coloring have been
hidden, and where .the herbage has lurked
that will delight the sheep and goats which
pasture there until the rain has gone and the
sun resumes his shrivelling mastery.
"There are many parts of the world that are
dismissed from the general reader's mind
as deserts which have in their soil the capacity
lor being richly productive If only they could
be supplied with water; and the Karroos, which
are the first of the kind to meet the traveler
as he enters Africa from the South, offer a
convenient illustration.
"South Africa is entered from its southern
point across a coastal plain which is backed
by a rampart of hills. When these hills are
ascended they are found to be the rugged end
of a plain lying from 1,000 to 2.000 feet above
the sea, and extending some 200 miles from
west to east and about thirty miles acroas,
with higher isolated points rising here and
there from the plain. This plain ls the Little
Karroo.
"Northward of the Little Karro rises a
steeper range of hills, the Zwarteberg, which
again proves to be the rugged edge of a loftier
and larger plain, some 350 miles wide and from
forty to eighty miles from south to north.
This plain ls the Oreat Karroo. Its elevation
reaches 3.000 feet In Its highest points. Its
northern boundary Ls a still loftier range ol
mountains extending In a semicircular sweep
from the northwestern part of the Cape
Province far round to the northeast. It has
various names, and It reaches a "height of
8..VK) feet in the Sneeuwberg Range and over
10,000 feet In the Drakensbe/g, on the borders
of Natal.
"When this northern mountain boundary of
tlie Oreat Karroo has been climbed, the final
plateau of the Northern part of the Cape
Province, the Orange Free 8tate, the Trans-
vaal, and Rhodesia Ls reached. The several
mountain ranges are great steps up to the
main plateau. They look formidable from the
south, but when the plateaus of which they
are the edges are reached, and the travelers
looks back at the mountains from the level
of the plateau, they seem comparatively In-
significant The final plateau In parts to
6.000 feet above sea level. The Karroos are
the two leaser plains, between the encircling

WOULDN'T be at all surprised," put
la. "Mother has spent her life
in loving service, and she adores to

Suddenly Mary faced her friend squarely
she said thoughtfully, "do you
honestly believe that?"
"Sure I do." returned the girl. "Why not?
That's her life."
"I agree with you on that point." responded
Mary, "for one could see at a glance that she
had spent it laboring for others, but have you
ever thought that she might find pleasure In
being served a little herself?"
"Mother wouldn't stand for any foolishness.
Mary," retorted Lala. "She's so methodical
that she'd rather do the work alone than be
bothered with Inefficient help."
"But you—" replied Mary soberly— "you
shouldn't be inefficient, having been trained
by such a mother."
"Look here, Mary," interrupted Nelle. "this
Isn't a personal experience exchange— this
ls a feast."
"I know It." answered Mary, "and I'm
ashamed of what I said— but somehow— well,
every girl doesn't have a mother like Lala's
and it worries mc because she doesn't see her
own good fortune."
The conversation ended there, but somehow
the atmosphere seemed changed with in-
harmony, and presently the girls were bidding
their hostess good-night, and slipping away to
'their own rooms— tout Lala couldn't rid her-
self of the memory of the conversation.
"I'm glad I didn't show them this." she
mused, as she rrfted a lovely rose dress from
an extra box that had come along with the
food— "they'd probably have said mother had
to wear calico in order for me to have this—"
"Calico—" repeated Lala— "calico— mother
wear calico?" Suddenly a vision of her mother
In a faded print came to her mind, and a sick-
ening sensation enveloped her soul.
Dropping down on a stool beside the window,
Lala let her thoughts travel back over a period
of five years — the years she had been attend-
ing high school and college— and through them
all she saw her mother working, working—
always doing something for her.
Crossing the room, she lifted a little box
from the dresser and stood carefully studying
Its contents- a pearl necklace gleamed up at
her from the blue velvet tray, a trinket she
had teased for until she got it; a small
diamond brooch — another needless trinket; a
heavy filigree bracelet that she had teased out
of her mother; a Jewelled comb lor which she
had no earthly use— each one suddenly repre-
sented a sacrifice to her from her mother, and
something new and strange stirred her heart
strings.
Presently a great Idea entered her brain
and she went in search of Mary Holt.
"Mao." she said/ "I want you to help mc
do something— right now."
A bit bewildered, Mary followed Lala back
to her room.
"Mary," said the girl thoughtfully, "by your
frank, outspokenness tonight you have opened
my eyes."
"I'm so sorry I spoke as I did, Lala." re-
turned Mary hastily, "for It really was very
discourteous to you— but somehow that bounti-
ful feast brought her tired eyes to mc so plainly
that I spoke before I thought."
"It did humiliate me very much at the time."
admitted Lala," but after the feast was over,
and the girls gone, I faced myself and realized
that every word you said was true, and now-
thls very week -I am going to begin restora-
tion. See those trinkets on the dresser?"
"Lovely things," answered Mary- ' any girl
would be proud to have them."
"Then they are going to get the chance to
buy them." responded Lala happily, "for I am
going to surprise my mother with a birthday
gift worthy of her love."
"You mean." faltered Mary-"that you want
me to help you arrange them for sale?"
"Yes." answered Lala. "I thci-ght about
having a rummage sale -
"Rummage ls all right," laughed Mary,
"when the sale Is old clothes— but Jewelry,
that's a different problem. I think we had
better peddle It privately."
"No." answered Lala. "I don t want to do
It prlvately-I want to do It publicly, and I
want the girls to know why I am selling my
trinkets."
"That settles the matter," laughed Mary.
"Well begin Immediately."
• • • • •
Two days later there wasn't a trinket left
In Lala's Jewel case, for ths majority of the
girls In Fall College were from very wealthy
families, and through Mary's salesmanship
had bought readily the proffered Jewels.
With eager fingers Lala counted over and
over the moivy that her trinkets had brought,
and then, with Mary's assistance, she began
making purchases, and three days before her
mother s birthday she had a box filled to over-
flowing with the same sort of lovely things
that her mother had been buying her for years.
"Don't you think you'd like to add a gift
or two for your father. Lala?" Mary asked one
evening as they tucked In a perfectly fetching
blue voile dress.
"No." answered Lala softly, "this ls mother's
box. Ill let fsther wait till his birthday to
find qui that I'm In earnest about things; too
much at once, Mary, might make them sort of
skeptical of my reformation, though I've
written mother fully."
•-The sight of that box. Lala." declared Mary,
eyeing the contents carefully, "will be enough
to convince them at least that you've had a
mother and I are going to be
everything."
And the next Summer when Mary Holt and
NeUe Darden paid their annual visit to the
Grays, they had reason to believe Lala had
spoken truthfully— but It was not until they
entered the guest room that night and spied
a placard freshly placed -on the wall, that the
girls exchanged comments.
"Read that. Nelle." called Mary-"Just read
that!"
"Quests are requested to look after their
own rooms in this house—" read Nelle slowly.
' since we can't a/Tord servants."
"Isn't that Just like Lala." said Nelle.
"Yes." agreed Mary, "thats like her— she
doesn't doljnylhlng half-way. and once having
discovered she was wrong In the attitude to-
wards her mother, she is trying, evidently, to
make up for it in good measure."
"Hurry up. girls— hurry up!" called the voice
of Lala from the foot of the stairs— "we're
going for a hike over the hills this afternoon
and wind up with a lunch at Willow Springs—
that Is." she finished happily-"lf I ever get
It ready."
Birds That Play "King of

JL tell us. The following story ls from an
observer In England. The Fens arc marshy
The Ruff, the female of which ls always
known as the Reeve, is a most pugnacious bird;
that ls, one fond of fighting. It comes to our
Ten districts in the Summer, and has a frlU or
iuff— hence Its name— of long feathers cover-
ing the neck, and two thick tufts of feathers
springing from the head. Tills frill or ruff
serves as a shield when It ls fighting, and the
hen birds, or Reeves, have not got It.
As soon as they arrive at the marslies, ea:h
Ruff appropriates a little hillock, or bit
of ground, and takes his stand defiantly on it
or struts aggressively round and round it, as
if declaring:
"I'm the King of the Castle.
Oet down, you dirty rascal!"
The other male birds around at once attack
him, resenting hLs arrogance. Sometimes one
will; sometimes three or four or even more
together; and a fierce battle takes place for
hLs "hill" or "castle," he doing hLs best to drive
off all assailants. This Ls to show off their
valor to the Reeves, or hen birds.
The game of "King of the Castle" goes on
day after day during the month of May and
the early part of June, and every night each
Ruff goes to hLs nest, which is somewhere else,
returning regularly to hLs "castle" In the morn-
ing to dispute any other bird's claim to It.
Only in the middle of June do the Ruffs cease
this fighting game, and then their shield-like
ruffs, or frills, fall off.
The encyclopaedia tells us that the Ruff is
tound in mast of the northern parts of the
world. It Is larger than the Enlpe and ls about
a foot long, measuring frcm the point of the
bill to the tip of the tail. The males' are re-
markable for diversity of colors ... but
ash-brown prevails, spotted or mottled with
black; the head ruff and shoulders are black,
glossed with purple, and variously barred with
chestnut. No two specimens are exactly alike.
The hero has a mind of such balance that
no disturbances can ahake his will, but pleas-
antly, and. as it were, merrily, he advances to

Storing Bedding Plants and
Tubers for Winter .
• *
ALL the choicer tender plant*— or, at any
rate, sufficient of them to supply stock
for next season — should be lifted and
given protection before they have suffered
permanent Injury from frost.
Geranium*, fuchsias, choice lobelias and
ageratums. calceolarias, heliotropes, scarlet
salvias, and other plants with fibrous root
systems, must be lifted and placed in a green-
house, frame or other shelter before their
foliage has suffered any damage from frost.
Lobelias, ageratums, heliotropes and scarlet
salvias should be accommodated in a heated
structure, the last two requiring a rather warm
temperature If they arc to be preserved in good
health. But. in the case of the other subjects
mentioned. It is only necessary to protect them
from fros^-lndeed, they will probably take
no harm if the temperature falls a degree
so below freezing point, though it is not
to take any risks In this respect. A deep frame
in a sheltered part of the garden will serve
quite well If the sides arc substantial and free
from cracks, and it is covered with a thick
layer of sacking during frosty weather.
Even a wooden shelter may be pressed Into
service for fuchsias and calceolarias. It may
stand In a sheltered place, and the floor
.should be covered with a deep layer of ashes,
so that the pots may be plunged to their
rims. The front of the shed may be left open
during the day if the weather Is mild, but
should be closed at night and during cold
spells with a heavy screen of mats or sacks.
Fibrous-Rooted Plants
IN all cases where fibrous-rooted plants are
lifted from beds and borders at this time
of the year, they should' be immediately potted
m receptacles Just large enough to accommo-
date their roots. Do not make the mistake
of planting them in over-large poU«. as they
will make little or no new root growth for some
time, and the extra body of soli will go sour
and tend to sicken the plants. Falling pots,
the plants may be placed, reasonably close
together In boxes about eight Inches deep, with
soil packed tightly around their roots.
Olve a good soak of water after potting
or boxing, and then water sparingly until
growth starts afresh In the Spring. During
the Winter It Is probable that water will only
be necessary about once a week. Even then,
it should be kept oft" the foliage as much as
possible, and applied before mid-day, so that
any leaves that do get wet may have a chance
to dry before nightfall.
Those who have neither greenhouse, frame
nor shelter at their disposal may Winter their
most valued bedding plants in a sunny window,
but they should take the precaution of re-
moving them to the centre of the room and
covering them with brown paper on frosty
nights.
Dahlias and Begonias
DAHLIAS and begonias, both of which have
tuberous roots, may be left In the open
until their foliage shows the first signs of
blackening by frost. Then they must be
brought In without delay. Do not, on any ac-
count, leave them to experience several night*'
sharp frost In the open, or the root* will be
damaged, and will decay during the Winter.
The root* should be dug up carefully, pref-
erably with flat-pronged fork, and should
be placed. Just as they are. for a few days in
a dry shed or room to which frost cannot pene-
trate. When the soli adhering to them is dry.
it can be rubbed off. and the top growth cut
away with a sharp pair of secateurs.
Begonias are best stored in shallow trays,
similar to those used for seed sowing, placing
the tubers on a thin layer of peat moss litter,
and covering them with a further Inch-deep
layer of the same material.
Dahlias keep well In peat moss litter, or
the large, tuberous roots may be surrounded
with dry sifted soil. But, as they are so much
bigger than begonias, they will require deeper
boxes, orange or sugar boxes being very suit-
able for the purpose.
The boxes containing the begonia and dahlia
roots must be placed in a dry place, in which
an equable temperature, which doe* not fall
below about 40 deg— certainly never below
freezing pointr-can be maintained. A cup-
board or cellar Is generally quite suitable, but
the former should not be too close to a kitchen
range or hotwater tank, or the heat may cause
premature growth.
Treatment of Cannas
C ANNAS and the blue salvia patens also
have tuberous roots, but they are treated
a little differently. They may be lifted at
once before they are touched by frost, and
cither be potted up separately or placed, several
together, in boxes with soil packed around the
roots. Store in frost-proof place in tempera-
ture of 40 to 50 deg . and where the atmosphere
is not too dry. The salvia will take little harm
If dry to shrivelling point, but the
should not become so dried up: in other
arid Winter quarters are not desirable.
Cannas need not be dried off for the Winter
where a greenhouse heated to 90 deg. is avail-
able. The plants may be lifted, potted and placed
in such a house, watered, and generally tended
as growing plants. The green and bronxy
colors of the leafage and it* shape tum them
into fine foliage plants, while, If growth la
good, and the roots are fed, Winter flowers will
be forthcoming. The canna, however. Is a
tropical plant, and revels In hot. moist, and
rich soil.
From February onward these tuberous- rooted
plants must be started Into growth again.
Many schemes are adopted for Wintering
the ubiquitous bedding geranium by those who
ful. but the majority are not Tying them In
bunches, and hanging In the cellar Is a plan
that result* in the survival of the strange*
only, and cannot be recommended. If the
plants, on lifting, are denuded of all the big
leave*, and have the straggling root* cut back,
the plants may go six or eight into six-inch
pots, chiefly round the circumference, using
any old potting soli available, or even good
garden soli. Drain the pots efficiently, add
moss of coarse leaves, then a little soil, next
arrange the plants, and finally fill up with
compost, and press moderately firm. Olve a
watering, and place outdoors on ashes to drain.
Olven open, sunny weather, the plants may re-
main outside, but must be brought Inside
when frost* threaten. For the Winter give a
position near a window in a spare room, and
apply water only when really necessary, and
not at all during a cold snap. On no account
must frost reach the plants. In hard
they may stand In cupboards, under
anywhere that Is safe from frost,
to the light when the thaw
mouldy and decayed leaves removed at all

more likely to suffer from any one of a com-
bination of these troubles.

they do not appear to be. Wash them off.
using a stiff brush dir.
or a nicotine solution.
White Speck*— Sometimes house plant* be-
come infested with white specks which sud-
take wing and fly. This white fly can
be brought under control by spraying with
nicotine.
Greyish Leaves— If your plant* have a grey-
ish or whitish cast or if there are webs over
the tips of the branches, the chances are they
have been attacked by red spider, a pest so
small It can hardly be seen. Since the red
spiders thrive in hot, dry rooms, the best way
to control them Is to spray the plant* with
cold water.
Oreen, Brown or Black Lice— Plant lice or
aphid* are nearly always to be found on house
plants. To control, spray with nicotine ex-
tract in soapy water or dip the tops of the
plants into the solution.
Angle Worms— Angle worms do not eat
roots, but In tunneling around through the pot
they will fill up the drainage space In the
bottom of the pot with fine mud. To bring
I hem to the surface where they can be re-
moved, water the earth with lime water.

sess an estate of several aeres to enjoy

to mirror a bit of blue sky and flying clouds,
and the smallest of waterfalls will add charm
to a small enclosure.
It Is by no means certain, however, that

Cockerel Distribution
IMPORTANT changes have been made In
the provisions of the cockerel distribution
policy introduced by the Hon. Mr. Weir last
year, with a view to making it more effectively
available for the 1933 poultry breeding season.
Tills year negotiations for the purchase or
sale of birds must be direct between the parties
Interested. The department on the presenta-
tion by the purchaser of male birds approved
under the policy of a declaration form properly
completed, refunds $1.25 of the purchase price
for the birds. When male birds purchased
under the policy move in lot* of ten or more
the department supplies the seller with a
transportation order form, which is authority
to the railway company concerned to charge
the full cost of transportation directly to the
department at Ottawa. Detailed Information
about the policy may be obtained by writing
to the Senior Poultry Promoter In your prov-
ince or to the Poultry Division of the

EXPERIMENTS for the electrical stimula-

their branches and blossom earlier than any In

Similar experiments were carried on for a
number of years, but It was not until about
forty years ago that it was proved beyond
doubt that the growth of plants was actually
stimulated by electricity. This was due to
Professor Lemstroem of Helslngfors University,
who, while visiting Polar regions, was struck
by the rapidity with which plants grew in the

experimenters conducted electro-culture ex-
periments by means of a high tension
electrical charge on an overhead network. In
1904 experiments were conducted by J. E.
Newman on the farm of Salford Priors, near
Evesham, with apparatus designed by Sir
Oliver Lodge.
Cider Time in Old Somerset
The chief work in this country is now be-
ing carried out under the auspices of
the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries
Electro-Culture Committee. The committee
was appointed in February of 1918. Professor
Blackmail, of the Imperial College of Science
and Technology, being in charge of the work.
The field experiment* were continued for some
six years. High voltages, varying between
15.000 and 50.000, were used In all cases ex-
cept one, where an even higher voltage of
80,000 was employed. Direct current was used
throughout. The discharge was applied
throughout the whole growing season for from
six to eight hours per day for approximately
equal periods In the morning and In the after-
noon. The data obtained from these experi-
ments showed that where Spring crops were
concerned an average increase of 22 per cent
was obtained. •
Since 1923 the work of the committee has
been confined to small plot and pot experi-
ment* and to laboratory Investigation. Atten-
tion has been concentrated on the following
matters, with the following results: It has
been established that current* of the order
of 1 -000th of a microamp per plant are in-
jurious, while those of the order of 1 -500th of
a microamp. are stimulative. Though lower
voltages may have some effect at times, the
majority of the results Indicate that the effect
is larger and more consistent when voltages
of the order of 10.000 are employed. The effect
Is greatest during the earlier stages of growth,
inuancc of the discharge during the whole
Influence of Lights
The writer also found that light treat-
ment can be advantageously used for the
germination of freshly planted seeds, as more
of them then produce seedlings. Transplanting
of seedlings or the setting of cuttings acts a*
a check on the growth of plants. If, however,
immediately after transplanting, they are ex-
posed to one night's Intensive Illumination
treatment, they will be found strong and
healthy In appearance the next day.
A further commercial, application is where
plants are kept back in the bud stage and then
when required brought Into flower quickly, for
such special occasions as Christmas. Easter,
or for weddings, social functions, exhibitions,
etc. For such occasions, flowers a day late
have lost their value.
Considerable experimental work has been
carried out during the past few years to de-
termine the effect of treating greenhouse
plants with ultra-violet lamps. As a result
of such work It now appears certain that
quartz light treatment is not to be recom-
mended. Very successful results, however, can
be obtained with what are known as sunshine
filament lamps, for these lamps have an
abundance of luminous heat rays in their out-
put.
ITU nearly 250 years since an English
botanist. John Ray, recorded what he had
observed to be the effect of the total absence
of light on plant life. This appears to be the
first indication that light was recognized as
having an Important influence on plant life,
and nearly a hundred years elapsed from that
date before other botanists Investigated the
question of the Influence of lights on plants.
The present writer's work during recent years
has been confined more particularly to ascer-
taining the commercial possibilities of intensive
lighting For this purpose he employs 2.000
candle-power gas-filled lamps placed in giant
reflectora The lights are controlled by a self-
winding automatic time switch and the plants
are given light treatment betweei
and 6 am. as during this period
obtained at a much lower cost.
It has been possible by placing such flowers
as daffodils and Lent lilies under the
when the buds were Just beginning to form,
bring them Into flower In four days, the plants
growing about three-quarter* of an inch a day
Narcissi have been brought into flo
seven days and azalea plants in bud
opened to full flower in one night.
A rather Important discovery was made after
these experiments had been carried on
some time. Aa was to be expected, the
the light per plant was high, but ultimately it
was found that It was not necessary to give
the plant* six
night. Relatively greater progress
Making Stepping Stones
for Garden Walks
PERHAPS you have been planning all Sum-
mer to get the stone to make stepping
stones in your garden, and. because of other
things, have put It off and put It off. Yet
there are places In the garden and around
almost every house where a few stepping stones
are more practical or more effective than a
walk. Some people have been able to make
stepping stone* with broken pieces of cement
sidewalk, but It take* patience to fit the Ir-
regular piece* In the ground. A much easier
way 1* to cut out the sod In the desired shape
and pour In concrete.
A few forms of common builders' lath fur-
ther facilitate the task. Place the forms on the
ground, mark around them, and remove
enough dirt to make room for the forms. Set
the form* so that their top edges are level with
the ground, and nil them with a mixture of
four parts gravel, two parts clean, sharp
one part Portland cement. Smooth the mixture
with a trowel.
When the stepping stones have set. the forms
can be removed and used again. Fall u a
good time to make these "*et-ln-the-*od"
stepping stone*, for whatever damage is done
to surrounding grass, and some will be un-
wlll be replaced by Spring growth.

It Is Important that the ground In which tiny

A position where there la a good free circu-
lation of air is important to their well being,
and they like sunshine, but an aspect winch

It is highly Important that peonies be not

in which the crown Is only Just below the
surface of the soil.
Single Stems
A NUMBER of experiments have been made
in' England this year In growing Michael-
mas daisies on a single stem. One Is apt to
forget that the perennial aster is a bog plant
In nature and If It Is grown in a bog It will
receive enough moisture to carry as many
stems as It puts up, but most of us grow this
plant in the most unpromising situations,
often, a* one writer says. "Where other plants
die on us.
As we cannot or will not plant the Michael-
mas daisy in its natural situation wc must re-
duce the number of shoots to such an extent
that the moisture available is sufficient for
It* needs.
The following Is an account of one of the
atngle-stem English experiment*, as stated
In one of the gardening papers: "This year
for the first time we have grown ours
(Michaelmas daisies) on a single etem. and the
result has certainly justified the experiment.
The taller varieties have attained a height of
seven feet. Many of the stems are one and
one-quarter inches in diameter and are clothed
with leaves right down to the ground.
"Hitherto we have always grown on three
stems, and have found eighteen Inches ample
room between the plant*. But single plants
require from two to two and one-half feet
between each to accommodate the magnificent
heads or bloom. The side shoot* are very lon«.
and, providing care has been taken not to
tie them in when the main stems are being
tied to the stakes, it will be found that there
is plenty of material for cutting and that tho
stems are far more graceful than when several
stems are left and are all tied together In
the usual way to a single stake.
Frequent Dividing
CCjT Is most difficult to convince the
A amateur gardener that It is absolutely
essential that Michaelmas daisies should be
divided and replanted each year and good
varieties grown on the single stem system can-
not fall to convince the most sceptical that
this Is the only perfect method. Hitherto we
have never seen the beautiful natural shape of
the plant, nor the lightness of the growth, we
have contented ourselves with what we have
called clumps, but the clump will soon be a
thing of the past."
So many fine hedge plants are now offered,
such as lonlceria nltida, that the old common
laurel is being thrown Into the discard. But
the fact Is that the laurel hedge, under certain
circumstances, Is a very uteful one. It Is one?
of the finest windbreaks that can be grown. It
is strong, hardy and high. What can be finer
than a laurel hedge ten to fifteen or even
twenty feet high and six to eight feet in width?
If one wants a windbreak and can give plrntv
of room then by all means plant laurel, which
grows quickly, lasts long and is not a great,
deal of trouble to keep In order.
On the other hand, if one want* an orna-
mental hedge which may or may not break
the wind to the same extent as laurel, thru
lonlceria nltida is the hedge to plant.
The fact is that. In spite of all the new
hedging plant*, the old laurel and even privet
will still be planted in quantity, although one
Is apt to discourage the planting of the Utter
on account of the fact that Its roots spread
to such an Inordinate distance on either side
of the planting; so much so. indeed, Uiat one
cannot get anything to grow within several
feet of a privet hedge.

MERRY WIDOW REVIVED
Seemingly the London public are
prepared to give "The Merry Widow"
a cordial welcome on its revival at

who is back in his old part of Baron

ever, — proof positive that he has lost
none of his old form. Helen Gllli-

not the famous waltz song which set
the fashion for such numbers?
WOMEN IN JURY
Another revival of a vastly dif-
ferent kind Is that of Galsworthy's
• Justice," at the Garrick. This play
which attacks the pre-war penal
system, secured the serious attention
of the Home Office to the subject
so presented. Moreover it may be
claimed for the play that It brought
the whole question of crime and
punishment before the public in
such a manner as to change the
general outlook in regard to it. In
this revival women are included
upon the Jury in the trial scene.
Some may doubt whether this touch
of the up-to-date is altogether legiti-
mate, seeing that the scene Is con-
cerned with the law courts of an age
when legal practice. In regard to the
calling of Juries, was quite different.
BRONTES IN EVIDENCE
The Bronte sisters are much in
evidence here Just now. Four or
five plays concerning that extra-
ordinary family at Haworth par-
sonage are under consideration for
presentation here. One by Eliza-
beth Ooldge was put on in seml-
privacy at the Faculty of Arts
Theatre. It is pleasant enough, but
the playwright seems somewhat to
have lost herself in the immensity
of the canvas she attempts to cover.
Probably she will have the sympathy
of most beholders In making Emily
Bronte more prominent than Char-
lotte. This character was strikingly
played by Mary Oodwln. and Eileen
Thorndlke (sister of Dame Sybil
Thorndikr) created a gracious piece
of character in playing Charlotte.

D1TCHLINO. England (CP).—
Frank Brangwyn. R.A., great Brit-
ish decorative artist, who lives as a
recluse In this beautiful village.
Dltchllng. Sussex, has accepted a
commission to paint three panels
for the main corridor of "Radio
City" in New Work. Radio City Is
the wireless centre which is calcu-
lated to outrival the highest of New
York's present-day skyscrapers. The
other artists, a Spaniard. Senor
Joae Maria Sert. and a Mexican.
Senor Diego Rivera, also are en-
gaged to supply panels for the new
building.
"I didn't mean to take it on." Mr.
Brangwyn told an interviewer, "but
the enthusiasm of the men who
came to offer me the commission
overwhelmed me. They had Just
come from seeing Senor Sept in
Paris. Their keenness was extra-
ordinary and they came to me two
days running. In the end they suc-
ceeded in firing me with their own
enthusiasm.
"In some respects the new com-
mission is the biggest I have re-
ceived. I shall start at once on an
elaborate series of sketches. I am
to paint four panels, each twenty
feet by seventeen feet, and the sub-

MOSCOW (UP). — Success in the
Soviet films does not brine palaces
and sunken bathtubs a U Holly-
wood in its train. The public haa
been given a peep into the small,
overcrowded and uncomfortable
homes of the country's most
famous picture directors, scen-
arists and players.
It was enough to prove .that the
favorites of the sliver screen here
live no better than their humblest
admirers, so far as housing accom-
modations are concerned. The Justi-
fied occasion for such peeping was
an article in a film paper demand-
ing better housing conditions for
workers In the Industry. By way
of proving Its point the article de-
scribed a few of the present homes.
FILM DIRECTOR'S HOME
The" quarters of Serge Eisenstcin.
whose work as a film director is
known throughout the world, are
described as "a light, handsome
room. The first Impression is favor-
able. A table, a closet, a bed. chairs
—all that a human being needs."
But the second Impression Is not so
good. "The room Is overrun with
books, on chairs, under the bed. on
the floor. Elsenstein Is clearly a
victim of overcrowding."
Movie Director ReLsman and his
wife occupy a room at the home of
a friend, possessing no floor space
they really can call their own. The
young director Zhuravlev, author
of the film "Bomber," has only a
corner in someone else's home and
sleeps on a trunk!
FEW HOUSES GOOD
A few of the film people do have
fairly good homes. These excep-
tions are listed In the article. Even
those, however, are a long throw
from Hollywood grandeur. Vseve-
lod Pudovkln, who seems to have
the best home of them all, "has
several rooms In a good neighbor-
hood." O. Leonldov boasts "three
good rooms, gas and a bath" . . .
the listing of such wealth will
doubtless make Cecil DeMille and
young Thalberg envious.

tie in common with ordinary music
for the sighted; it depends upon
the principle of touch and the pos-
sibility of combining the existing
Braille forms so that all requisite
signs can be adapted. Braille based
his invention on the writing by
means of dots of the French officer,
Charles Barbler, but he dropped the
five-line system which Barbier used
in his music.
If we should place the same piece
in ordinary music and in Braille
side by side, no one would at first
glance recognize them as signifying
the same thing, the appearance is
so different. The sensate impres-
sion of an ascending or descending
melody through higher or lower
written notes, whose difference is
shown by lines or spaces, is not
created in music for the blind; here
wc are dealing with an entirely dif-
ferent form of presentation. Music
Is pictured for the seeing, in the rise
and fall of the melody, while music
for the blind must remain picture-
less.
In Braille music, although time
signatures and key as well are met-

cated at the beginning of the piece,

Fine Play
By JACK OAVER

NEW YORK <UP».-RacheI
Crothers has had a long career as a
playwright, something like twenty-
flve years, and in that time she has
given the stage some notable suc-
cesses. But her previous efforts
seem to be surpassed In "When
Ladles Meet," a comedy of marital
matters which John Oolden has
produced.

combine to make the play one of
the theatrical attractions which
must be seen.
Briefly, the story ls that of a fine
young woman about to surrender to
the wooing of the publisher of her
novels, who Is going to seek a
divorce from his heretofore under-
standing wife. But a younger suitor of
the authoress engineers a meeting
between her and the wife, a situa-
tion which the writer had used In a
novel, with the result that both
women come to understand the
fickleness of the husband and leave
him In the lurch. But there is much
more of it than a bare recital of the
plot; there ls high good humor, fine
dramatic situations, and over all an
expertneas that makes you be-
lieve It.

nothing but a framework for Miss

Young Oerard was taken in
a Paris cinema to see himself
on the screen. Everything
went well at first, but when
he saw himself on the "talk-
ies" with a little crown on his
head and a sceptre in his
hand among the dolls and
the acclaiming voices of the
children of Montmartre he
created a scene in the
cinema.
Oerard gave expression to
such shouts of satisfaction
that the film had to be inter-
rupted while the spectators
applauded the young actor In
real life. Gerard Cony has
given such promise at the
early age of five that he ls
already known as France's
"Jackie Coogan."

Shaw Play
Fails; It Is
Replaced
LONDON (NANA).— The Shaw
play, "Too True to Be Oood." hav-
ing failed in London almost as
quickly as it did in New York. Sir
Barry Jackson has concentrated on
a really fine production of Som-
erset Maugham's new play on the
same theme (though very differ-
ently treated) which has been put
on at the Globe with a strong cast,
including Cedric Hardwicke and
Ralph Richardson, who both acted
in the 8haw play; Louise Hampton,
C. V. France, Marda Vanne and
Flora Robson. A young emotional
actress with what looks like a big
future before her.
The play ls called "For Services
Rendered" and the action takes
place In the house of a solicitor In
a small country town. It ls very
serious in intent and shows the ef-
fect of the war on those who served
in it, on those who were too young
to serve and on those who were too
old. Cedric Hardwicke plays the
part of a man blinded In the war
and Ralph Richardson that of an
ex-army officer turned garage
keeper.

(By a Studio Hand)
LONDON — During the last two
months I have been working in the
same studio as Jack Payne. Tom
Walls. Ralph Lynn, Henry Edwards,
Sydney Howard, Dorothy Bouchier,
Anna Neaglc and Winifred Shotter.
During working houm I have had
the chance to see and hear Jack
Payne and his boys playing new
tunes for "Say It With Music"; I
laughed at Ralph Lynn and Tom
Walls In the haunted bedroom
scenes of "Tharic" long before film-
goers had the opportunity; I heard
Winifred 8hotter sing her song In

ago. I could, in fact, tell you Just

The film I'm working on now.
"Yes, Mr. Brown," has no less im-
portant a person than Jack Bu-
chanan in the dual capacities of star
and director.
"Yes, Mr. Brown." has been In
production long enough to enable
me to say that when it appears on
the screen, you are ,*oing to see the
essential Jack Buchanan.
On the screen you will see Mr
Buchanan singing, dancing, Joking,
introducing his wife as hLs secretary
and hLs secretary as his wife, reap-
ing a peck of trouble in consequence,
and trying to laugh It off.
But If you look deeper, I think
you will aLio see the other side of
his personality— the qualities in him
which have enabled him to rise to a
position of world-wide popularity,
in spite of the fact that, as a lad
of eighteen, he was "given the bird"
by a Olasgow audience and hooked
off the stage.
Study "Yes, Mr. Brown," closely,
and you may detect the hand of
the Jack Buchanan we know In
the studio— not the Immaculate,
laughing, singing and dancing Jack
you will see on the screen, but a
serious, thoughtful fellow, dressed
in grey flannel bags, white pullover
and old soft shoes— and perhaps

Mayan Trip
Is Planned
By Author
CLEVELAND (UP».— It's a foolish
wife who devotes her time in tak-
ing care of her husband, according
10 Mrs. Edna Robb Webster, whose
book "Occasional Wife." was re-
cently released.
"When a wife follows her hus-
band around trying to make him
happy, nine times out of ten she Ls
making him miserable." the novelist
stated.
And because she practices what
she preaches. Mrs. Webster will
leave her husband and children In
February and sail to Yucatan on
her second trip Into the Interior to
seek relics of the ancient Mayan
civilization.
During most of the trip the ex-
pedition will study the primitive
life In the region, but Mrs. Webster
plans to be in Merida. capital of
Yucatan, for the annual carnival hi
March.
"We plan to study the contrast
between primitive and cultural life
In the region." Mrs. Webster said.
Mrs. Webster is recognized as one
of the few good authorities on the
subject of the ancient Mayans in
the United States. When she Lsn'i
In Yucatan or Guatemala, she con-
stantly Ls doing further research
wherever she can find any material
related to the subject.

This Jack Buchanan Ls a relent-
less worker. I remember the tale
they tell In Hollywood of how he
InsLited on rehearsing all hLi scenes
in Lubltsch's "Monte Carlo" to the
point of absolute perfection before
a "take" was attempted.
The attitude which he adopted
as a star and a-i a stage producer
he has brought also to the Job of
directing. He works hard, and he
expects hard work. But he posses-
ses the quality of sympathy which
makes him Invariably considerate
of the other person's point of view.

Age Old System May Be
Abolished in English
Criminal Courts
LONDON (BUP) — A new demand,
on the ground of national economy,
is to be made to the British Govern-
ment for the abolition of the grand
Jury system in criminal trials at as-
sizes and quarter sessions.
The proposals for this amendment
of the law have the support of sev-
eral of the King s Bench Judges and
the backing of the most influential
leaders at the Bar.
As much as $4,000 Is incurred In
witnesses' expenses at the Old Bailey
for an opening day on which the
grand Jury sit. and most of the wit-
nesses brought from all parts of
London and the Home Counties are
never called on.
It is estimated that the total un-
necessary witness expense for the
Old Bailey amounts to more than
$37,000 a year.
The average number of cases
thrown out by the Old Bailey grand
Jury Is four a year, against a total
of approximately 10,500 cases. Each
one of these four cases, If there had
been no grand Jury, would have been
stopped by the Judge or the Re-
corder and the prisoner discharged.
Moreover, money Is wasted on the
unnecessary attendance of witnesses
at every county assize. At busy as-
size towns like Birmingham, Cardiff,
Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool and
Newcastle, the waste is almost as
great as In London, although not so
frequent.

SYDNEY. New South Wales
(BUP).— Much has been written In
rictlon and fact of the Royal North-
west Mounted Police of Canada, but
the deeds of the Northwest Police
of Australia provide a virgin field
for novelist and historian. Whereas
much of the work of the Canadian

natives were known to have gone.
They traveled 1.200 miles on hone-
back. They tramped a wearying 200
miles through swamp and Jungle
on foot, carrying their provisions on
their backs. They could not shoot
game for fear the aborigines would
hear the rifle shots. When striking
tracks they liad to follow them for
twenty hours at a stretch. And
when they came to open country
they had to avoid It and keep to the
gloom of the Jungle ro that the
blacks could not discover them. But

STILL PREVAIL
Peculiar Habits and Beliefs
of Roaming Clan Brought
to Light
LONDON (CP).— Peculiar habits
and beliefs of the roaming gypsies
are constantly coming to light In
this country where about 100,000 of
these nomads still practice the age-
old rites of the Romany people.
Their caravans, bright and gay. are
a familiar feature of the country-
side.
At Taunton charms and amulets
were found burled with a baby's
body. A police constable testifying
at the inquest said It Is Romany
custom to bury charms and coins
with a body for "good luck and fare-
well."
The gypsies have stranger customs
than these, however. Many are
married In a blood union. A wed-
ding cake Is made of flour mixed
with blood from the wrists of bride
and bridegroom, both of whom eat
a piece.
DIVORCES ARE FEW
In the most generally used rite
the bridegroom knocks thrice on the
door of his beloved's caravan. Her
father opens the door and the suitor
must then produce evidence of his
suitability— a halter to show he pos-
sesses horses; a ring, to Indicate
money, and a whip, signifying his
possession of a wagon. Not many
divorces take place among the
gypsies but they have strange forms
for it. One of them is to let blood
flow between the husband and wife.
This the husband docs by chopping
off the fourth finger of his left
hand. He preserves the finger and
carries it about with him. When he
marries again he gives the
to his new wife.

Naval Changes Planned in England
LONDON (BUP).— Hundred* of
antiquated laws may be swept away
at the present session of Parliament
following the activities of a power-
ful group of MP.'j who are deter-
mined to end the farce of the
Statute Book.
Many of these laws, 500 or more
years old, are the last stronghold of
pettifogging local officials who too
often succeed in prosecuting blame-
less shopkeepers and hard-working
smallholders on a statute designed
to uphold some forgotten monopoly.
An eminent legal authority re-
cently made a search through the
Statute Book of England. His dis-
coveries would stagger the law
lords.
LAWS OF CENTURIES
Here are some of the more bizarre
laws which can be still evoked:
In 1314 it was made illegal for
youths to play football because it
distracted them from archery prac-
tice. It is still illegal and Arsenal
prominent football teams) could be
suppressed tomorrow and heavily
fined.
Every shopkeeper who leaves
goods in the window over the week-
end can be prosecuted for exposing
them to view on the Sabbath.
SWEARING ON SUNDAY
A naughty word spoken by a sol-
dier, sailor or laborer on a 8unday
could cost him a shilling a time.
Persons "under the degree of a
gentleman" may be charged a flat
rate of two shillings, while a per-
son "of superior rank" is charged
five shillings for relieving his feel-
ings. On Monday anybody can
swear free of charge.
All boxing Is an ofitence. Any
contest in which the combatants
seek to subdue each other by force
of violent blows is illegal. It might
create a breach of the peace in the
first place, and, secondly, it Is an
assault.
BEGGING HOT WATER
To beg a Jug of hot water is
illegal— a tramp was fined for It
not so long ago. If he had asked
for cold water he could not have
been prosecuted, and hot water is a
valuable consideration and must
not be begged.
To carry the absurdities still fur-
ther, a man can be summoned for
not supporting his grandchildren.
Spiritualists have full religious
toleration in this country, but they
could undoubtedly be prosecuted
for witchcraft under laws of

T is learned that far-reaching modifications in British naval policy are planned for the near future. One
suggestion which will mark the epoch is that Dartmouth «Naval College, one of the •finest naval college.

schools would be substituted. Above are two pictures of the Royal Naval College at Dartmouth. Top, an

People Living Longer
Than Past Generation
British Population Enjoys a Wide Measure of
National Health Which Raises Life Expectation
by fifteen Years or More
LONDON (BUP).— "Never before
have the English people enjoyed the
measure of national health which
they have today."
This is the verdict arrived at by
Sir George Newman, the chief
medical officer of the Minister of
Health, in his annual report for
England and Wales.
GOLDEN FIGURES
The golden figures of the nation's
1931 balance-sheet of health show
that the expectation of life at
birth in two generations has in-
creased by not fewer than fifteen
years. From 1870-80 the expecta-
tion of life at birth was only forty -
one years for a boy and forty-four
for a girl. Today it is fifty-six for
a boy and sixty for a girl.
Sir George foresees problems
arising out of our growing power to
arrest the waste of child life.
Broadly speaking, in the last ten
years the nation has been saving
Infant lives at the high average of
40,000 a year.
CARE OF NEW BORN
"We must not overlook the fact,"
states the report, "that If the na-
tion saves Infant life on this scale
it must not be surprised If many
weakly, and, perhaps, even defec-
tive, children are saved, which tend
to increase the number of the 'un-
fit.' The protection and care of the
newly-born Is advantageous and
desirable, but it brings with It some
new problems, and certainly It
brings new responsibility."
Note Increase in
Motor Traffic on
British Highways
LONDON (BUP).— Accord-
ing to a census of road
traffic taken by the Automo-
bile Association at over 100
points on the principal roads
In Great Britain, during a
week of seventy-seven hours,
automobiles showed an In-
crease of 100,000, motorcycles
a slight decrease, and other
motor vehicles an Increase of
26,000 over the figures for the
corresponding period last
year.
Motorcycles have been de-
creasing In number since 1929.
Trucks showed a large in-
crease in 1930. but only a
small Increase in 1931.

LONDON (CP) . — Furniture from

Southern Atlantic, has been utilized

BIRMINGHAM (CP).— The story
of a Birmingham business man who
held up an express train traveling at
the rate of sixty miles an hour and
was fined $10 and $50 costs for doing
so, yet gained a contract for $50,000
thereby, Is related In connection
with the firm of John O. Sutherland
Sc Sons, gas meter manufacturers,
the offender against the law being
John Guthrie Sutherland, head of
the firm.
This Is the story:
Brighton and Hove Corporation
had offered a $50,000 contract for
the supply of gas meters over a
period of twelve months. Mr.
Sutherland, hearing of the contract,
rushed to Knowle Station to try to
board the 10:37 a m. excursion train
from Birmingham. He bought a
half-day excursion ticket.
The train does not stop at Knowle
The booking clerk said he could not
—and would not— atop the train.
Mr. Sutherland tried the signalman.
No success . . . "If you don't
stop the train," Sutherland said, "I
will." And he did.

ticular house would be revealed to

That, of course, is all bosh, and
the Post Office knows it. They
might be able to detect an isolated
set at work in an Isolated country
district, but In a crowded city like
London, where there might be scores
or hundreds of sets in one block, it
Is utterly Impossible to detect one
working set. To claim that the ma-
chine can detect a set In that or
any area which Is not working is
nonsense.
No sooner does the van arrive os-
tentatiously In a given street than

and, on the van's last little raid

LONDON (BUP).— When the Law Courts opened this
week, and the judges assembled and moved through the
Abbey and crossed to the Palace of Westminster they
wore the full panoply of their high office. The Lord High Chan-
cellor of England, Keeper of the King's Conscience, Keeper of
the Great Seal and Speaker of the House of Lords was magnifi-
cent in black and gold. So also was the Master of the Rolls,
and in varying style the judges of the Chancery Division.

means, and none of the explana-
tions offered as to their derivation
is anything more than a guess.
And then there are the wigs.
Oddly enough, although the wig is
the symbol of the lawyer which is
most familiar to the lay public, it
has no legal significance. But there
Is one little matter of interest in
the Judges' wigs. Long ago, and up
to 1780, the highest rank at the bar
was that of the SerJeants-at-Law,
and from that rank only were the
Judges taken. The Serjeants' dis-
tinguishing mark was a small black
"coif" or cap. When wigs cams
into legal fashion it was found dlf«
ficult to wear them below the coif,
so the coif grew gradually smaller
until It lessened at last to a small
black patch on the crown. Then
the Serjeants died out and the coif
vanished. But the little circular
depression where the coif once
rested still remains in the wigs of
His Majesty's Judges.
PUDDING NIGHT
As against all our ceremonial
sights In London, there is another
aspect— that is. the intimate side
where high officers of state put off
their official armor and mix In the
common life.
An Instance occurred the other
night, and probably only In London
could It have occurred.
There is a tavern in the town, in
a little court off Fleet Street, be-
loved of Journalists who want a
drink and a chat with professional
brothers, and of visitors from afar
who want to dine and to feel that
they have sat In the seats of Dr.
Samuel Johnson and of Charles
Dickens and many other great ones
In politics, in literature, in painting
and so on. And If the incredulous
Insist that there is no evidence that
the Doctor ever even entered that
tavern, may it not be argued that
there is equally no evidence that he
did not? But the ghosts of cen-
turies are undoubtedly there. Well,
the other night was what is called
"Pudding Night," the pudding being
a concoction of larks and mush-
rooms and some other most succu-
lent ingredients carefully kept se-
cret, and by long custom the pud-
ding is always cut on the first night
of the season by some famous per-
sonage or other when a select com-
pany sit down to dinner. This year
it was cut by Sir John Simon. K.C..
the Secretary of 8tate for Foreign
Affairs. And In a small low-pitched
room In a seventeenth-century tav-
ern, lit only by candles, Sir John
talked conversationally about high
affairs in general while his audience
sat with tankards of ale, and all of
them (and even some of the ladles)
tried more or leas successfully to
smoke through long - stemmed
churchwarden clay pipes.
That's the pleasant, homely side
of life In London.
NEWS CENSORS
We have no press censorship in
this country, nor. unless perhaps for
the benefit of one or two more sen-
sational newspapers, do we need one.
But we have a Post Office, and the
P.O. has set itself up to say Just
what Is or is not news.
Under the present regulations, a
Journal which is registered for trans-
mission at newspaper rates of poet-
age must not devote more than
two-thirds of its space to advertise-

young British Harley Street eye spe-

Shaw, lecturing recently to the
New Health Society at the request
of its famous president, Sir W.

PERMANENT STAFF
"One of the primary functions of
Industrial administration," he said,
"is to maintain a permanent labor
force, with a high and constant
standard of efficiency, in order that
production may be as economic aa
possible. This Is especially impor-
tant where the particular form of
labor imposes strain upon the visual
structures.
"First, I strongly advocate the at-

THE college girl may have plenty
of money to spend on her
clothes or she may have very little,
but all of them want a certain
Jauntiness and chic in their ward-
robes. They must express the exu-
berance of youth and the quick,
active minds of the owners.
In this group of costumes you
have all of these attributes. The
two-piece posed at the extreme left
of the picture consists of a checked
worsted top and wool crepe skirt.
The double-breasted Jacket has two
collars, both notched, one detach-
able, of white pique and set-on
pockets.
The Jumper dress of fine wool
tweed shown next Is a smart and
practical little frock for the college
girl. The batiste blouse may be
either white or eggshell.
The student's first impression on
classmates or teachers will be a
pleasant one If she wears the third
model, a two-piece frock with light
top of crepe knit fabric. The blouse
has raglan shoulders and a scarf In
the color of the skirt. 1a knotted I shoulders, ring fasteners on sleeves i with three-quarter length Jacket,
carelessly but artistically at the
throat.
College girls adore the type of
frock shown fourth. It Is made of
angora wool with that touch of
white in its separate collar and bow
of pidue. It is tailored in a smart
new way with buttons on the bodice
and on the set-on pocket.
Even smarter than it looks in the
picture is the double-breasted rain-
coat in trench coat style of double-
with plaid lining. It has raglan
faced cotton gabardine In khaki
and belt, deep pockets and buttons
and look like leather.
A well-tailored, double-breasted,
two-piece suit the college girl will
find chic and practical. The one
pictured six Is of new rough wool
and is well cut, the skirt with a
separate belt of wool with two but-
tons and two slit pockets. The coat
is. lined with crepe de Chine.
Medium brown, any of the tans or
navy blue would be smart for this suit.
Another suit is shown on the next
figure. It really Is a four-piece,
short Jacket, blouse and skirt. The
longer Jacket is not pictured. The
suit itself Is wool with a long-
sleeved, flat crepe blouse with
frilled Jabot. The three-quarter
coat is unltned. An excellent travel-
ing or shopping suit as well as for
campus wear.
In her most becoming color, shell
pink, white or French blue, maybe,
the crinkled crepe evening frock,
second from right, would prove a
satisfactory choice. It has a short
Jacket of the same material with
puff sleeves that are shirred at the
shoulder. A rhlnestone buckle
finishes the belt.
Cotton Jersey in a fancy mixture
that looks like soft tweed makes the
little frock worn by the figure at
the extreme right. It Is appro-
priate for college or office or shop-
ping in town in Fall. It has a bow
of white batiste at the neck, in-
verted plait back and front, and
belt of self material with bone buckle.
These garments are all compara-
tively inexpensive, but well
and will wear well.

grated apple, one-half cup sugar,
one-eighth teaspoon cinnamon, one
egg white, one teaspoon lemon
Juice. Beat the egg white until

the sweetness of the apple. Apple

In a few States there are laws
requiring teachers to read dally
from the Bible to the children in
the public schools. In most State
Legislatures, however, a Bible read-
ing bill comes up repeatedly, only
to be defeated.
While I personally would like to
have my children dally hear at

I should like to see the wishes of
those who object to the Bible in^the
public schools respected.
Curiously enough, many of those
who fight most vigorously for Bible j
reading In the school do not have
Bible reading In their home. We|
have grown so accustomed to de-
pend upon the school for all the
formal education of our children
that we tend to neglect the many
family opportunlUes.
Except for the Ume and effort of
parents, there could be little ot no
objection to home reading of the
Bible to children. Each parent
could select the parts he wishes and
Interpret them or not as he likes.
If the child were to consider Bible
reading as a burden and a drudgery
it would, perhaps, be harmful. It la

would suddenly accept a Bible read-

A WHOLE BAKED HAM
Wash and scrape the ham thor-
oughly and soak overnight In a pan
with water to cover. When ready
to bake place the ham. ring side up
In an open pan. Do not add water
and do not cover. Between twenty-
five and thirty minutes per pound
will be required to bake a whole
ham. For half hams proportion-
ately less time is needed. Shank
ends usually require from forty to
forty-five minutes per pound. When
the ham Is done remove the rind.
Make a paste of two cups of
brown sugar and three cups of fine
soft bread crumbs, one teaspoon of
prepared mustard and cider or
vinegar enough to moisten the mix-
ture. Spread the paste over the
fat covering of the baked ham and
stick long -stemmed cloves into the
surface. Bake the coated ham for
in a not oven.

sugar, half cup bread crumbs, one
teaspoon prepared mustard, three-
quarters cup pineapple Juice, five
or six slices canned pineapple. The
slice of ham should be about one

edge. Fry out a piece of the fat in
an Iron skillet. Brown ham on both
sides and transfer to a shallow bak-
ing dish. Pour off the fat from the
pan drippings and mix with it the
sugar, bread crumbs, mustard and
pineapple Juice. Cover the ham
with this mixture and bake without
a lid for one hour, basting occasion-
ally. About fifteen mlnutea after
the ham Is put Into the oven ar-
range the pineapple slices cut in
halves in another shallow baking
dish and pour over them some of
the liquid from the ham, bake for
about forty-five minutes. Turn the
slices during cooking. Serve the
pineapple around the ham.
BROILED HAM
Trim the rind and lean edge from
a slice of ham and cut the edges in
several places to prevent curling.
To broil by direct heat, lay the ham
on a rack and place under the flam*
of the gas oven. Turn frequently
and cook at moderate heat. Allow
about ten minutes for a very thin
slice, thirty minutes for a ham one
inch thick.

fat. four and a half tablespoons
flour, three cups milk, three cups
ground cooked ham, half cup

THERE is nothing more aatiafy-
ing or exhilarating to a woman
than changing or renewing her per-
sonality with new apparel. A new
gown, new hat. shoes or coat may
easily make her feel and look like

Changing her home gives her
some of the same revitalized feel-
ing. When hubby mmes home at
night to And the furn'ture moved
all about and ma>be a few new I
knlcknacks added, he usually dis-
covers a more interested, vivacious |
wife to explain Just why she ef-
fected the change and how much
she likes the Improvement.
